Yucca



I was in the Gold Coast of Australia in my sister Helen's house when I saw these majestic plants. On the way to Sam's Karate class, I see this yucca tree in some one's front yard. I see it's progression from a tall rod to eventually flowers. It was about ten feet tall as it was higher than the house.

I was in awe because it was strong and didn't need anything wire or stake to hold it up. I couldn't photograph the whole plant as I was sneaking around and stopping my car at a no parking zone.

What a fabulous bloom! Agaves grow in my area. They only flower once every few years. They do look majestic.

This is quite lovely. I often try to be invisible when I'm trespassing to get a good shot!

Thanks for stopping by my place yesterday. I'd never heard the tale that Harper Lee was not the author of To Kill A Mockingbird. Wow.
