[ Sizes: Orig | Small | Thumb ]
Mojave Yucca in Bloom
The Mojave Yucca is also called the Spanish Dagger because it has long, narrow leaves with needle-like points at the ends. It grows on rocky slopes and the hot desert floor.
The flowers are bell-shaped and from 1 to 2 inches long.

Photographed in Red Rock, Nevada.
The peaks in the background are Rainbow Peak (left) and Rainbow Wall (right).

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.""   --Albert Einstein
