Hi there.
Given the recent good weather I've placed my yucca outside so it gets direct sunlight all day. However the leaves have turned white and brown at the top. Any idea why?
Thanks

Your Yucca will survive and in time will look fine in the sun conditions you have now given it. New growth will be acclimated to the new light conditions, and the old burned leaves can be removed later as they will not recover. Moving a plant from indoor light conditions to full sun will burn the leaves. Best bet was to have slowly transitioned it to the sun over a period of time for it to have acclimated.

Does your garden have good drainage? That is a must for Yucca.
