Agave (filifers ssp?) schidigera 'Shira ito no Ohi'


This Japanese selection of a north American native is a beautiful little plant. Brad tells me though, that it stays small. That would make it a good candidate for a mixed container but maybe not so good for the Florida garden. Maybe I could chip out a hole in a rock and plant it a couple feet in the air? My eyes just can't appreciate it 5 feet away (down).

Nathan discussed the new stairs with one of many visitors we had today

Nate is really moving on this job. He's finished 2 of 5 sections and is close on one more. That would be 60% done this week. Carole will probably be amazed but in a good way.
