Yucca is a tree native to the United States. Yucca is a desert plant that grows in arid regions. It blooms at night and the fragrant white flowers attract the Pronuba Moth, which is the only insect that is capable of penetrating the shape of the yucca bloom. The moth lays eggs in the pollen of the plant. Without the Pronuba Moth there would be no Yucca because its pollen is too heavy to be wind-blown to fertilize other plants. Yucca is high in vitamins A, B and C and contains potassium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, manganese and copper.
