Description
Photograph of yucca from the Colorado Desert, [s.d]. A short, thick tree stands on the side of a hill just to the right of center. The tree has textured bark that looks like shavings while the top contains long leaves that flower out of the uppermost part. Large rocks and boulders can be seen on the hillside while bunches of grass grow out of the ground.
