Here's a yucca that at first sight resembles an elk.
A mass of Soaptree Yuccas blooming simultaneously.
Have I ever mentioned that the yucca is the state flower of New Mexico?
It's a member of the lily family, and its flowers are edible (slightly reminiscent of artichoke leaves).

The Apache people consumed the flowers and used other parts of the plant as well.

Beautiful yucca blossums. I think they have a delicate, slightly sweet taste.
