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

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.

That must be the best and biggest pic of Yucca rigida I have ever seen. 8)

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

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

Only in my dreams unfortunately.

Great shots Jim! Yep Barb I agree, the only problem is, if I were to move there, I would import Spuce, Oak, Maple.... 😉

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. 😀

Oh yes CIDP's
I could finally plant my old one, and all the Medjools and Deglet Noors 😆 😆

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. 😥
