Last October a Facebook friend shared photos of front garden (perhaps hellstrip) agaves I wanted to check out in person. I got the approximate location and then I dove around looking, looking, looking—and not seeing anything that resembled the photos he'd shared. Not all was lost however, as I discovered this fine garden...
Yucca rostrata I think, although they are starting to stray into Yucca linearifolia territory...
Those green crop circles? Herniaria Glabra. I could not—for the life of me—identify them. So I messaged the garden designers Creative Landscapes Inc via Instagram and asked.
Okay but really, why are we here, talking about this garden? Because of that agave...
A spectacular Agave ovatifolia...
I really do think there could be a few more agaves in the mix however, there is space!
Thankfully on the opposite side of the driveway there were indeed, more agaves. First this little A. parryi...
And this guy whom I think must be an Agave 'Baccarat'...
Finally an overall shot with the sign of the garden designers I mentioned earlier. Don't you agree there could (should) be more agaves?
