Those are awesome old specimens Jay. I first saw those about 15 years ago when my friend spotted them as he was driving through that area. He took some pics. for me back then. I'll see if I can dig them up and I'll send you them. They were much smaller back in 1990/91, but still very impressive. Those Yuccas were planted in 1962 dug up from the southern desert as small specimens. Joe

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

I can't imagine Jay yours and mine getting that big one day. Ours are so tiny in comparison.
