Flowers at LGCC, and the Yucca

We have had a lot of great flowers at the Country Club this spring.

The landscape bed at #4 green






And 1 of my favorite - the Yucca

My vehicle stands 6ft tall and 5 ft wide - almost equal to the Yucca; and BJ is 95 lbs, smaller than the leaf mass
I had not seen the Yucca plant until I moved  to Idaho, it forms these very large shoots of flowers in mid summer, similar to a gladiola in the Midwest.  It is the state flower for New Mexico, and believe it or not the flower pedals are edilble and very nutritioness.
