Got stuck in the leg by one of these today at work. It feels like I've been stung by a bee.

I can't find anything to suggest these things are poisonous.... and I know people eat yucca root and make soap out of it.

Anyone know anything about these plants?

Not poisonous, but they can give a deep puncture wound. No telling what germs were on the point os clean it out and watch for signs of infection, redness, swelling, puss, etc.

Watch for signs of puss??

I knew yucca helped calm the stomach but I didn't know it was an aphrodisiac as well.

I call it a Bayonet Plant.

They do have beautiful & make an interesting addition to the landscape, but position them wisely & handle them with care.

beautiful = beautiful flowers.

there is a possibility that you are confusing "Yucca" with "Yuca".

Very few people eat yucca..........but MANY people eat Yuca.

Speaking of which, did you hear that the nuclear waste depository at yucca mountain was cancelled after spending 10 billion dollars on the project.

Once you put those bayonet plants in the ground, you don't to transplant them or do additional gardening around them. They'll stab the **** out of you.

More like Yucka !

don't let it get infected
