First of all don’t try to save on potting mix. Buy the best quality all-purpose mix you can afford. Then put on the gloves and remove yucca from the pot, loosening the outside layer of the root ball. Transplant yucca into a new pot which should be at least 2 inches larger and 6 inches taller than the previous one.

The soil should already be in the bottom of the pot. The soil must be added underneath the root ball till the base of the stalk and the rim of the pot are even. Don’t forget that the plant must be centered. After that add soil up to the base of the stalk. Water your houseplant thoroughly.

If you want to propagate the plant, there are two ways to do that. The first one is planting yucca seeds. The other one is repotting the offshoot pups of the plant.

They are small but completely formed plants growing at the base. So as to produce new plants, you can separate the pups from the parental plant, locate them in the place where you would like them to grow and enjoy a new, pretty clump.

Hopefully, these tips gave you a clear idea of how to repot yucca and propagate it.
