We recommend using the following to sow the seeds:
Yucca Baccata, aka the Blue Stem Yucca, is a popular succulent houseplant that grows in the form of a tall tree(similar to a dracaena). Being a succulent, it loves lots of direct, bright light and doesn't require much water!
To plant the seeds, pre-soak in warm water for 12-24 hours, sow in a well-draining medium, cover with a humidity dome and keep >70F(use a heat mat if necessary). The seeds can germinate very quickly given good conditions, otherwise they usually take 4-6 weeks to germinate.
