Yukka white patches

Hi,

I have had my yukka for 10 years and have put it in the garden this summer as its getting quite big ( still in its pot) its got these white circles on it and not sure if its the sun causing it? any ideas? also the leaves are getting a bit frail round the edges going brown and brittle. Can anyone help? should I bring it back indoors?

thanks

Re: Yukka white patches

Your Yucca sounds like it could be one of a few things, pot bound and dehydrated, or just dehydrated. Why have ou chosen to keep it in the pot? Most yuccas survive quite well in the UK. Are the 'white patches like a fungi on the surface, or are they more yellow, like the colour is fading away? Are you feeding it at all?
Can you post a picture?
