Thousands of these "trees" are present around the park. The "Joshua Tree" is actually a variant of a lily. It gets its name from Mormon settlers who for some reason thought the trees reminded them of the prophet Joshua.

Sharone,
Photos don't do the vastness of the place justice. Next time you're in Palm Springs drive up there or have the kids take you. As much as you love plants, I know you'll love this park.
Amazing write-up! This could aid plenty of people find out more about this particular issue. Are you keen to integrate video clips coupled with these? It would absolutely help out. Your conclusion was spot on and thanks to you; I probably won’t have to describe everything to my pals. I can simply direct them here!
