I went to California for the first time last year and went to Joshua Tree. That’s literally when I realized it’s a gd desert. 😂

It is a tree-like plant species of the genus yucca from the Mojave desert range (the field) I’m from the southwest and think they are beautiful, we used to go through it every year at Christmas traveling between family and I always wanted to put lights on one 🥰

As a native Californian, let me just warn you that so much of Southern California is just a desert.

You're valid for the tree thing, but those pictures aren't giving a good picture of it. Joshua Tree is MILES long and has gorgeous rock formations and just like stunning landscape

Okay, I can accept that it’s not a tree. But I will not accept looking at that thing and calling it a BUSH. What do you think bushes are?? 😅

As a CA native and a lover of JTNP, this is absolutely valid.

That’s what the Mormons changed the name to. 🙄 Aztecs called it izote de desierto which means desert dagger in Nahuatl. Native Cahuilla people called it hunuvat chiy'a or humwichawa

YES THANK YOU! People clowned me when I found out a place that everyone just called “Joshua Tree” wasn’t a huge ass tree that had some kinda historical significance with a Joshua. Hello, Plymouth Rock? Liberty Bell? Why wouldn’t I have thought it was a massive tree? 🙄

We did the same thing… And then when we asked somebody that worked there, she looked at me like I was stupid and I was like “I know you’ve gotten that question 5x a day every day since you’ve worked here”

As a Joshua from California who's always had complicated feelings about Joshua trees and Joshua Tree National Park, I want to affirm this video. Does it make sense? No. Does it make sense it was the Mormons and that was why? Yes. Is it a bush? A tall one yeah. Down with Joshua Tree.

Come to my house and I'll show you how beautiful Joshua Tree National Monument is. I can see only parts of it out my window because it's so massive

It's a beautiful park, best to visit during the winter and the site of "the last wild west gun fight"

Jumbo Rocks is the best campground at Joshua Tree. I mean, if you like big rocks in the desert.🖤
