Yucca Plants

Yucca plants are drought resistant and can survive for many months without water.  This summer I really notice the yucca plants more because a lot of the other plants are having trouble with the lack of rain.
Yuccas are members of the large agave family.  Yuccas produce a flower cluster called an inforescence, made up of many individual white flowers hanging downwards in groups from a stalk or spike that can grow up to 6 ft tall.  They flower once a year.
