I purchased my home over 2 years ago. At the time, I knew very little about yuccas,let alone how difficult it would be to remove. There were 4 yuccas growing along my fence line. They were huge! One of the trunks was at least 2 1/2 feet wide. Another had a branch that was nearly 15ft tall/long. I knew that I wanted them gone but I had no intentions on digging and cutting away at it. I read that few have had success with brushing on weed killer so I decide to try another method. I cut them all down until about 1-2 feet were left above ground level. I then drilled deep, 2-3 in wide holes in the different stems coming from the stump and drilled holes into the stump itself. After, I filled them with concentrated weed killer. Specifically weed killer high in glyphosate. The one I used was 41% glyphosate. As days and weeks passed, I saw leaves and sprouts on the stem and trunk turning brown and dying. Since then, the stumps have gotten soft and brown. I have not seen anything sprout since then. Not even from the ground. Since I am in no rush to use the space taken by the yuccas, I throw grass clippings and other compostable items on top of them. I assume they'll compost away sooner or later.
