What a captivating combination of pastels against the heavenly blue sky. Yucca flowers are not easy to compose, and you did a nice job in photographing and cropping. 🍭 🍭 🍭 🍭 🍭

Very pretty banner, Luka. Thumbs up
Could you please post a photo of the whole plant?

Yuccas are amazing plants, and grow natively here,
surviving severe drought & wildfires.

According to the Wiki article. Blinking
The petals are blanched for 5 minutes, and then cooked "a la mexicana" (with tomato, onion, chile) or in tortitas con salsa (egg-battered patties with green or red sauce). In Guatemala, they are boiled and eaten with lemon juice.
In El Salvador, the tender tips of stems are eaten, and known locally as cogollo de izote.

Bon Appétit! Smiling

This one had me stumped, and then a big D'Oh! when I opened the thread. The blooms make a beautiful and unusual banner. I think we all love seeing something like that.

Cool banner, Luka. I've never looked at a yucca flower up close, though they are common. I would never have guessed the identification from the banner! Nice job finding a good slice from the photo! Smiling
