So after some googling, and receiving tips from the #plants community & a family member who has a Yucca, I gave this guy that I randomly acquired (see https://regenerate.social/@robyn/111185496667896286) some TLC in the form of:

• removing the debris and dead plant material
• ripping out weeds (and a baby tree...)
• trimming dead/brown leaves, and
• giving it some fresh soil mix (one especially for palm trees and succulents).

I think it looks quite decent now 😊 We'll see how it fares!

An "After" picture of the acquired Yucca. It is all cleaned up now - the debris is gone, the brown leaves have been trimmed off, and the weeds pulled. The soil is fresh and new.

I have acquired (what I assume is a) #Yucca gigantea. The problem: I know next to nothing about it, since I don't typically grow tropical/indoor plants!

I've done some reading, so am beginning to understand its needs, but I do not have enough knowledge to tell if it is a healthy plant.

Can someone help out and tell me whether any particular TLC (beyond clearing the pot of debris & maybe amending the soil a bit) is needed here? Thank you!!
