Landscape with Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia) in Mojave Wilderness Area, Utah, USA
This monocotyledonous tree is native to arid southwestern North America in the states of California, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada, where it is confined mostly to the Mojave Desert between 400 and 1, 800 m (1, 300 and 5, 900 ft) elevation. It thrives in the open grasslands of Queen Valley and Lost Horse Valley in Joshua Tree National Park. The name Joshua tree was given by a group of Mormon settlers crossing the Mojave Desert in the mid-19th century. Joshua trees are fast growers for the desert; new seedlings may grow at an average rate of 7.6 cm (3.0 in) per year in their first ten years, then only about 3.8 cm (1.5 in) per year The trunk consists of thousands of small fibers and lacks annual growth rings, making it difficult to determine the trees age

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the serene beauty of the Mojave Wilderness Area in Utah, USA. The landscape is adorned with majestic Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia), a unique and iconic sight native to the arid southwestern region of North America. These remarkable monocotyledonous trees thrive in the open grasslands of Queen Valley and Lost Horse Valley within Joshua Tree National Park. Their name was bestowed upon them by Mormon settlers who traversed the Mojave Desert during the mid-19th century. Joshua trees are known for their resilience in harsh desert conditions, growing at an impressive rate of 7.6 cm (3.0 in) per year during their first decade, before slowing down to approximately 3.8 cm (1.5 in) annually thereafter. The trunk of these magnificent trees consists of thousands of small fibers, lacking annual growth rings that typically indicate age. As such, determining their exact age poses a challenge for researchers and admirers alike. In this image, devoid of human presence, we witness nature's grandeur at its finest – an expansive sky dotted with fluffy clouds serving as a picturesque backdrop to these ancient sentinels standing tall against all odds. Danita Delimont's masterful photography skillfully transports us into this enchanting wilderness where tranquility reigns supreme and reminds us of nature's ability to flourish even amidst adversity.
