Shrub with sword-shaped leaves (5)

I believe the answer is:

yucca

(Other definitions for yucca that I've seen before include "Evergreen N American shrub" , "Common indoor plant" , "American plant with tall stout stems" , "House plant with spiky flowers" , "Mexican plant" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
