wordless wednesday [98]: my yucca in bloom, early this morning




(I am back home and my camera has hardware problems, will have to send it in for repair... but first I will take sunny pictures of this wonderful yucca later on today. Wish me luck! I am not pleased with this shot but I wanted a follow up on the prior post...)

    I don't know this Yucca....We have Yucca's here in California, but the flowers are on a HUGE Stalk....I've never been close enough to one to get some good pictures of the actual flowers on the stalks....They are Native to this area and they are all over on every hill!
    I look forward to seeing more of these flowers....
    Sorry to read about the Camera needing The Camera Doctor...Hope they can fix it quickly and get it back to you--post haste!
    Hope you had a GREAT time Mar....!

    I can see why you were anticipating the blossoming. Looks wonderful. I hope you had a wonderful trip too and that your camera recovers quickly.

    Welcome back ! hope you had nice holidays in the Alps ! The blooming Yucca is beautiful ! What a difference in 10 days !
    I had a wonderful stay in my Art summer school ! The only disappointing thing was I didn't learn anything about photoshop ! I knew more than my teacher ! It was in fact a workshop about photo shooting, lol ! But still I learned quite a lot.
    We were 300 students of all kind of arts on the campus and it really was very nice. Everybody so openminded and friendly no aggressivity or long faces ! What a difference to the daily world !

    Mar is back! [jumps up and down and claps hands] Yay! Welcome home!

    I am so sorry to hear about the camera. I hope it is an easy fix. In the meantime, this is one heck of a photo! You may not like it, but we never saw your vision, so we're plenty dazzled.

    LOVE the purple tips! And I agree, this picture looks great! I love how the other plant leaves sort of border the blooms.

    I knew right away what this blossom was...we call it a yucca candelabra... they're so beautiful.

    Thanks for the visit. Your flower photo really brightened my day 'cause we had a lot of them in Tucson..I miss them.

    :o)

    I had never seen Yucca's flowers! And I have two or three yuccas in my garden! Perhaps one day they will offer me this beautiful show!?
