Yukka (again)

Remember our spiky plant? The one that has gone a funny shape? (I have been told it is a yukka.)


The Man has a theory about this plant. He says that the plant did not like having its spikes cut off.


It laced its fingers and pondered the problem. Then it thought, "Hey! If I keep my fingers laced, maybe they won't get chopped off..."


"Look! No spikes!" it said. "Don't chop me! I'll be good!"

So far, it is working. We have not chopped off its spikes. Not the middle ones, anyway.
