The yucca tree is 36 inches to 8 feet tall depending on where it is growing and the conditions that it has to grow in. The fruit that comes from a yucca tree looks like a bell pepper from the outside with the fact that it is a big round oblong shaped fruit. The fruit is green when it is ripe and looks like it has two different seeds connected into one big fruit. The leaves of a yucca tree are very long and straight and a very dark green. They are very poky on the end with one big vane going through the middle of the leaf. The bark for this kind of tree changes from a white/brown color to a very dark brown almost black color. It is a very scaly kind of bark that looks like a lot of little pieces of bark that are glued together onto a sheet of paper.
