There are several tips on how to prune a yucca. First of all, bear in mind that this species is a cane plant. That is why pruning in this case means cutting the trunk instead of branches and blooms like with other plants.

The best season to do it is early spring, right before the growing season.

Put a halfway mark on the trunk (you can also cut a bit higher), take any cutting device (a saw, a pair of loppers, etc.) and cut off the top leafy part of the trunk.

Repot the rooted section of the trunk and water it thoroughly. The pruning is done.
