Yucca Walk

Notice I did not say...'Yuck, A Walk!'...

We like taking a walk around the neighborhood.

The hubs & I took a walk in the neighborhood a few weeks ago 

and I just couldn't resist taking my camera to shoot 

all of the pretty yucca plants in our neighborhood!

 I really like these plants...

so unique, pretty, but oh so short-lived!

 A few short days after I took these pictures,

all the beauty was gone.

They seemed to bloom in abundance this year. 

 Seems like there were Yucca everywhere...

except our yard.

:(

We also saw a few birds...

we heard this one before we saw it.

 Also saw some pretty roadside weeds...

 More yucca...

We saw them in huge patches, single flowers or big clumps.

 School's out here...time to watch out for the kiddos playing!

 These trees were flowering too!

Very pretty...

 This Honeysuckle was surrounding a mailbox in the neighborhood.

I love the smell of honeysuckle.  

I wish it lasted all summer.

 Every street seemed to be filled with yucca.

I really need to find out how to get some into our yard.

 I don't think they transplant well.

I've heard they have a long root.

Maybe I can borrow some of the seeds pods?

Any one out there know how to get these plants?

 Our neighbor has a crooked playhouse.

I love it!

I always commented on it when we were house hunting.

So cute...I want a house like that!

What do you see when you walk in your neighborhood??

Happy Friday!
