Yucca treculeana

Family: Asparagaceae, Genus: Yucca

Description:

Yucca treculeana is a giant plant native to the Rio Grande region of south Texas, known for its stiff, 5-foot long glaucous leaves. It forms large clumps topped with massive globes of white bell-shaped flowers. This plant can grow a thick trunk up to 12 feet tall, sometimes exceeding 20 feet. Its rigid, boat-shaped leaves and light bulb-like inflorescence make it a striking addition to landscapes. Yucca treculeana is deer-resistant and its leaves have been traditionally used for thatching, while its fruit can be fermented into a beverage.
