Yucca Kingdom

Lubbock is an arid land, and in that arid land one will find yuccas.

This is the same type of yucca that I used to see in Massachusetts.

However, in Massachusetts I never saw fields of yuccas.

And I never saw yuccas with white skinny spikes of dark pink and white flowers.

And I most certainly never saw a yucca as tall as tree. In fact when I first saw this yucca, I thought it was some sort of variety of palm tree - that is until I saw the flower spikes on top.
