Indoor Yucca Rotting from Top Down – Likely Not a Houseplant

Yucca Species Identification Needed

Second indoor yucca dying, hollowing from top, with basal shoots.

Two Possibilities

• Houseplant yucca (Yucca elephantipes): Post on the Houseplants forum for specific care.
• Outdoor yucca: Requires winter dormancy (cold period). Cannot thrive indoors long-term.

If it's a large native yucca, it must go outdoors to experience winter cold.
