Yucca

Scientific Name:
Yucca sp.

Yucca is valued for its drought tolerance and striking tall spikes of white or cream-colored flowers that bloom in clusters. This plant thrives in well-drained soil, full sunlight, and requires minimal watering once established, making it ideal for dry, arid landscapes. Known for its architectural form, it adds a bold, dramatic touch to gardens and xeriscapes, while also being low-maintenance and resilient to harsh conditions. Its sword-like leaves and tall flower stalks make it a standout in any landscape design.
