Yucca rostrata is a striking tree-like desert plant with a thick trunk. It features a large rosette of thin, sharp-pointed leaves atop the stem. The leaves have a gray or bluish-green color. Yucca rostrata is native to arid tropical parts of Mexico and Texas, where it grows along rocky slopes and ridges. The slow-growing Yucca rostrata is very hardy and highly suitable for patio containers, gardens, and landscaping. In summer, it can produce clusters of white, bell-shaped flowers.
