Driving home from a friend's open garden I took a different route than the direct one that got me there. Because you just never know...
Ya, it's not often you see a row of three different (large) Agaves in a hell-strip, at least not here in Portland.
I wanted to ask why. Why the Agaves I mean, they didn't look like hardcore gardeners – or at least not "dangerous" gardeners.
But there you have it.

That green and gold one is pretty fabulous, even if the daisies are somewhat incongruous.
ReplyDeleteI kind of liked the incongruity.
DeleteAh, that classic pairing: agaves and shasta daisies! :)
ReplyDeleteAll the cool kids are doing it.
DeleteMaybe they were Agave-sitting for friends.
ReplyDeleteha! Can you imagine?
DeleteGo figure!
ReplyDeleteIt is odd for non addicts to have such plants especially that yummy Agave mediopicta alba. Maybe they've recently moved.
ReplyDeleteYa I wondered, that might be the case.
Deletegorgeous agaves. I wonder if the owners wrestle them back into the house in the fall....
ReplyDeleteIndeed...perhaps with a hand-truck?
