The leaves are flexible, not stiff like most yuccas. Yuccae? Yucciyae? Beargrass has almost round, dark green leaves that are unarmed. You can run the leaves through your hands and not donate blood. Devil's Shoestring has flat, light green leaves with very small serrated teeth along the edges. A wrong move and amputation might result. With the drought some plants are blooming now (because I gave them a drink). Otherwise in spring, like Linda says. Photo of the Devil's Shoestring. It puts its flowers way up out of the foliage. Beargrass flowers are tucked down into the foliage.
