Saw three agave plants doing their “bloom of death” all at the same time. That’s gotta be rare, right?

The photo gives us a glimpse into everyday Mexican life at the beginning of the 20th century. But with the help of artificial intelligence, we can now bring this moment back to life.

By adding color based on the clothing, landscape, tools, and historical context of the time, we can imagine what this scene may have looked like on that particular day in 1902.

More than 100 years later, we can see Mexico through a new lens.

Is this A. americana?

I recently purchased one a few weeks ago and planted one in my backyard but they’re too stunning for no one to see. So, I bought another one for my front yard.

Are these the bulbis?? Will they turn into agaves? Theres soooo many. Or are they just seeds??? Also look how big the second spike has gotten already! 😲

This monster has been in our garden for 10+ years but in the last two has shot up to about 8ft tall. I think it wants to take over the world.

It’s getting through the oak tree now

I don’t know why someone would want destroy such beautiful plants

Pretty excited about this find at the local big box. Got it repotted into some proper soil and it’s really showing off.

04/29 - 06/11 I find it just fascinating how fast it grows, almost as tall as the palm.

Picked up these 2 agaves on eBay recently.

Agave Sierra Azul & Agave Oteroi ‘filigree devil’

I got this agave Americana 6 years ago from my mum, an offset of one of her agaves.

Since then it has had many pups itself. There are currently 23 rooted plants, and 25 more offsets on the way from across the plants - things are exponential now!

This is in east London, UK.

What's better than one agave tuxedo kamen, two. One is the head I chopped off my plant that has now rooted down. The second is the base which is starting to produce offsets, slowly of course

Went to go see the corpse flowers in bloom but this one stole the show for me! This is my first time seeing one bloom in person, it was exciting but also sad. I hope it gets plenty of visitors

I didnt think it was gonna happen because of the FL frost. IM SO HAPPY. Blue glow agave.

Look at this gorgeous and huge Agave Americana my bf has at his place! Love the leaves marks though 🤓
