These special trees need so little water that they grow in the driest conditions. With the scientific name Yucca brevifolia, what is this species?

There are 3 subspecies of Joshua tree that can be found only in Mojave Desert in California. They're one of the few tree species that can survive in that desert heat. Joshua trees inhabit desert plains, slopes, ridges, and flat-topped hills at an altitude between 1,300 to 5,900 feet. They also make great album titles!
