Cultivation

Grouped as a cactus or succulent by the genus Yucca, which is reliably one kind of plant (archetype table). The table holds no figure for this group, which spans too much for one minimum, and no habitat climate is derived yet; no cold floor is given, and no prose comes from the table.

Nothing derived: no habitat climate for this species, and the archetype table has no figure for its genus or family.

Climate across the habitat

No habitat climate can be derived: Only 1 distinct land cell of the climate grid holds an in-range record; three are needed for an envelope.

Natural habitat

Native range as published by WCVP.
No openly licensed record to show inside the range.

Kew's description“desert or dry shrubland”· quoted from WCVP, RBG Kew (CC BY 4.0); not derived here
Evidence usedThe map marker rests on all 1 georeferenced record inside the native range; none carries a licence permitting republication, so the map shows no points. Under a dozen records: treat the map as indicative. No climate envelope is derived for this species.
