For those interested it is a Yucca Filamentosa from South eastern North America, common name Adams Needle.
It flowers once, after two to three years, then fruits and dies and new plants grow from its base.
The stalk can grow to 12ft.
amazing what you can find on the internet.

If it's Spanish it's a yukka gloriosa.
