Can you overwinter the yucca palm outside?

Room yucca is not hardy

For this reason, the hardy species can easily remain outdoors during the cold season, with a light winter protection if necessary. Yucca elephantipes, cultivated as a houseplant, on the other hand, can withstand temperatures in the higher single-digit range, but none around or below zero. You can therefore put these plants on the balcony or terrace during the warm summer months, but you should bring them into the house in good time.

Tips

The room yucca also needs a winter rest phase in cool - around five to ten degrees Celsius - temperatures and in a bright location. As a result, the plant will probably even develop flowers.
