|discussion=<p>S. D. McKelvey (1938–1947) wondered if <i>Yucca elata </i>var.<i> verdiensis</i> might be a mountain variety of <i>Y. angustissima</i>. On the other hand, she pointed out the differences between the two taxa and stated that the features of the former bear “no resemblance to those of <i>Y. angustissima</i>.” J. M. Webber (1953) suggested that <i></i>var.<i> verdiensis</i> is a hybrid between <i></i>var.<i> elata</i> and <i>Y. angustissima</i>.</p>
