They will thrive indoors when placed in a bright or full sun spot, but they also do well in bright indirect sun. Keep in mind that too little light can result in thinner and slower growth. Because the Yucca comes from the desert, they are used to temperature fluctuations and can adapt well in changing temperatures indoors!
