Where is the genus, 'Yucca', shown in the picture native to?

Yucca is a genus of perennial shrubs and trees in the family 'Asparagaceae', subfamily 'Agavoideae'. Its 40–50 species are notable for their rosettes of evergreen, tough, sword-shaped leaves and large terminal panicles of white or whitish flowers. They are native to the hot and dry (arid) parts of the Americas and the Caribbean.

The natural distribution range of the genus Yucca (49 species and 24 subspecies) covers a vast area of the Americas. Yuccas have adapted to an equally vast range of climatic and ecological conditions. They are to be found in rocky deserts and badlands, in prairies and grassland, in mountainous regions, in light woodland, in coastal sands, and even in subtropical and semitemperate zones, although these are generally arid to semi-arid.

Yuccas are widely grown as ornamental plants in gardens. Many species also bear edible parts, including fruits, seeds, flowers, flowering stems, and more rarely roots. References to yucca root as food often arise from confusion with the similarly pronounced, but botanically unrelated, yuca, also called cassava or manioc
