I was out looking for a trunking yucca at local nurseries and came across a new 5.5 for tall trachy today marked down from 150 to 60 bucks. Super good deal I couldn't pass up. Not sure where I'm putting it yet but that's a minor detail.

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.

I planted it yesterday. I decided to give the front yard the tropical treatment as well. I'll post some pics shortly. I have a new video of the backyard to go up on youtube shortly as well. My agave has taken off quite well I certainly hope I can make it through the winter.

No idea what tfhobby is so I guess not. The agave came bare root from Joes cactus mart on ebay. He's from California but he ships internationally but doesn't guarantee arrival because doesn't do the paperwork. But I got 11 agave from him no issue. Looking at a yucca rostrata right now.
