Some more pics

Not sure where to start...I asked my neighbor if he minded if I get a closer pic of his Agave...
he said he was just getting ready to remove the pups and asked if I wanted some-lol

So I got some,one is not variegated...

Not sure if this is an Agave or Yucca-but look at all the pup/flowers

Awesome pics of agave angustifolia in bloom. Did you get any bulbils off the bloom stalk.?

Great score on the americana medio picta alba pups, I know they are your favorite.

Awesome, I have several of them each too and have been wanting to test the limits of their hardiness. Glad I decided against it this year.

Jim, you're getting a nice haul.
May need a U-haul :lol: :lol:

Apart from those great shots being of some of my fav plants, the clear blue skies, lovely tile/stucco/gravel combinations (house styles/landscaping) makes such damned beautiful combinations.

Hello? 1-800-Move-to-AZ
Only in my dreams unfortunately.

I would live there Barb, but there wouldn't be ant washies in the yard. Maybe a few Phoenix Date palms and several hundred agave. :D

damaged from lack of rain
What a shame, they get to that size and then people don't care.
I'd throw a bucket of grey sink water on 'em each day during drought. :cry:
