must be another very variable species... first photo above looks nothing like all the rest. Unsure how to tell this one apart from other species.

A plant I bought 7 years ago when it was a plantlet with 5/7 leaves in a pot of 2 liters, approximately 1/2 gallon, so may be 9 or 10 years old.

Wow..... nothing explains better than the habitat photos. Thanks for sharing. :U :S
I have planted one Y. treculeana at my place but it is still very small. Yuccas generally grow pretty well in Islamabad area.

You are welcome. Yucca treculeana is great at adapting to just about any environment, it even grows in coastal marsh along the South Texas coast. Probably one of the few Yucca that can tolerate constantly wet roots and salt. They also do well in the desert, as they are a close relative to torreyi.
