    I really like these agave blooms. In fact, I got a similar picture last year but at the gas station of all places!

    Fabulous. I have a giant false agave in my Florida yard, but it went in last year so I don't know if it flowers like this. That would be great if it did.

    Beautiful! One of my aloes(*) is blooming for the first time, I'm just waiting for the little yellow flowers to open to take some shots.

    (*)Actually I'm not quite sure it's an aloe, maybe a small spiny agave... I don't know.
