Yuccas & Agaves,was Dumb Question

Thanks to all you experienced growers who responded to my dumb question.
The yucca in question is Y. filamentosa,  so is the stemless perennial
(as Dave Poole said) which is trying to send up offshoots from its
underground rhizome. I can only hope the two, I cut off are not the only
ones it will make. Oh ignorance, where is thy bliss?

The agave relative is a Beschorneria yuccoides which has not flowered
yet, and I +will+ try to pot up any offsets it makes. Any other hints
about keeping these beauties around will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
to all for not scoffing!
