What is photosynthesis in a yucca plant?

For photosynthesis in a Yucca Plant, the plant must be watered at least 5 times a day. The Yucca Plant is very sensetive. If you cut it, it will not grow, but it will die effective in about 1,2,3, or 4 weeks. I hope I helped you out! -Scientist of CA; Juliana DeVoccha
