Then and Now

In 2009, I planted this artichoke agave, agave parryi var. truncata, without knowing how large it would get.

 Back then, I also didn't know its proper name. I called it a rose cactus because it reminded me of roses.

Well 14 years later, the plant is huge. I'm waiting for the flowering stalk to appear. This plant has given me numerous pups, like the one trying hard to grow from under this huge momma. I transplanted one pup from five years ago to my front yard garden bed. That pup in now a momma to at least seven pups.
