Glad you had time to see plants. Did you also get to eat at the Big Texan Steakhouse?

This looks like Y. rostrata? But I need too see a close up of the leaf egde. 😕

I know - mixed up the photos a little bit. Here is the buster...

Ok... that looks more like Dasylirion wheeleri to me. Did it have teeth on the leaf edges? 🙂

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.

Yes, Aaron, it has. I have D.wheeleri from a garden center and it is green but the plant on the pic is grey! Does this species have a such color variation?

Sorry for asking but you didn't comment a cactus with no spines on it... Any ideas?

The western mahonia - I don/t think it is mahonia. This particular plant leaves are soft ones.

I had a chance collecting the desert willow seeds up there. How they should be germinated? And the acorns belonging to some elegant oak tree with purple fall leaves...

Most of the D. wheeleri here are sold with the blue/grey form.

I don't know what the one without spines is?

I don't know if I have ever strated desert willow seeds. 😕

Hi Igor,

I tried some desert willow trees this spring. Easy to germinate. I covered the seed with a 1/4" (0.3 cm) of soil and kept them at room temperature.
