Dog-Chewed Spineless Yucca: Prune & Propagate

Damage Assessment

Chewed leaves only? Pull off damaged leaves to reveal attractive trunk. Chewed trunk? Cut top off, root in fresh soil—bottom will resprout.

Propagation

  1. Cut top 12–18" with clean shears.
  2. Let cut end callus 1–2 days.
  3. Plant in gritty mix; keep barely moist.
  4. Roots in ~1 month.

Dog Deterrent

Sprinkle cayenne pepper on soil surface.
