Cruising past at 30 mph (or so, I tend to speed) I caught sight of an agave, or wait, maybe that was multiple agaves? I did what any reasonable person would do and circled back around to have a closer look. Yes multiples, 15 actually. And an opuntia crown...

Some unsuspecting shrubs, or maybe roses? Had been harshly cut back to give the newly planted agaves the light (and attention) they so need and deserve.

Can you even imagine 15 agaves being planted so close together in the desert? It makes me smile. Oh us Portlanders, we so want success with your desert plants!!!

I'll have to check back next week and see how these newbies are holding up to the arctic blast...
