Yucca aloifolia, commonly known as the Spanish Bayonet, is a striking evergreen shrub or small tree characterized by its upright, tree-like growth habit. It features stiff, sword-shaped leaves with sharp terminal spines that form dense rosettes atop thick trunks. In summer, it produces impressive spikes of fragrant, creamy-white bell-shaped flowers. This hardy species is exceptionally salt-tolerant and drought-resistant, making it an ideal choice for coastal landscapes and xeriscaping.
