Yucca
Yucca Yucca filamentosa has a large tuft of stiff spiky
leaves and a tall woody flowering stalk with many
whitish bell-shaped flowers. It grows in dry soil and on
sand dunes and the plant has mechanisms to conserve
precious water. Spanish Bayonet, Adam's Needle and
Joshua tree are all species of Yucca. Some Yuccas
provide a source of fibres for making ropes.
