Weed or sucker?

15 years ago

I know that yucca canes pruduce suckers but my yucca is also the pot that had the most weeds in it before I pulled them all out. I noticed this a few days ago. Im afraid to pull it out in case its a sucker. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

If it's a sucker, it will be attached to the main root system.

Doesn't look like a sucker, but not a common weed, either. You might let it get a little bigger and see what develops, especially if it is in a pot where you can contain the roots in case it is a weed.
