If You Love Agaves...

If you love Agaves and have not seen the photographs from this plant lover's trip to Mexico, you are in for a major treat.  Ever seen an Agave with fluffy leaf tips?  Agave albipilosa may be very, very popular once it reaches the market.


Enjoy:

  1. Some of these photos are just amazing. So many beautiful Agaves too -- 3m tall? Now that's an anchor plant!

  5. What I like is the chance to see them growing in nature, to see where they thrive. Not always what we expect: often in shade! The groups-on-slopes, created by by no human mind or hand, is the perfect design solution. Does Nature really need us?
