Yucca Tincture & Alcohol-Free Extract

Yucca (Yucca glauca) is the soapweed yucca or Great Plains yucca, a stemless evergreen perennial of the asparagus family, Asparagaceae, native to the dry prairies and badlands of the central United States and Canada from Alberta to Texas. It forms a dense rosette 60 to 90 cm across of stiff, narrow, grey-green, sharp-tipped leaves edged with white and fraying into curly threads, and in early summer sends up a stalk 1 to 2 meters tall with pendant, greenish-white, bell-shaped flowers pollinated only by yucca moths. The thick root foams in water from saponins. We extract the dried root.
