Description
I took this image while the yuccas were at their peak bloom period in the Texas panhandle.
Yucca is a genus of perennial shrubs and trees in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Agavoideae.[2] Its 40–50 species are notable for their rosettes of evergreen, tough, sword-shaped leaves and large terminal panicles of white or whitish flowers. They are native to the hot and dry (arid) parts of the Americas and the Caribbean.

Many thanks, Bunny, I was looking for barrel cactus and happened upon this guy, on the property right next to ours. We've finally gotten some rain so hopefully the yuccas will bloom again this year.
