Burned-out native Chaparral Yucca (Yucca whipplei or Hesperoyucca whipplei, Liliaceae or Agavaceae), burned by the "White Fire"
This is another family burned-out native Chaparral Yucca (Yucca whipplei) in the Liliaceae plant family - now renamed as Hesperoyucca whipplei in the Agavaceae. They were burned by the "White Fire" that started at White Rock picnic area a month ago. They look like pineapples. These plants are mostly showing some green. They might make it, though the combination of wildfire and very dry drought soil might do them in. (Paradise, Santa Ynez River, 27 June 2013)
