Adapting to the Environment

If you plant an agave under the edge of a building, it will be difficult for those tall blooms to grow.  This one adapted to the circumstance.

  4. Great catch. I love how the plants continue under the building edge, but I probably wouldn't have thought about this happening either.

  7. Where there's a will, there's a way. We could learn something from a plant like this. Don't let anything stop you from reaching your goal!

  9. Good eye. Made me smile. And reminds me of Florida...anything you plant here will grow into a tree and take down whatever's in its way!
