Ceptorman Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 My Dad still lives in the house he built 68 years ago. Took him three years to build it, and never had a mortgage. Him, my Mom, and 3 boys under 3 were living in a 12' long trailer on site. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From memory I think it’s a central flower spike from a very large soft succulent The succulent itself grows about 4 feet in diameter and has oval soft leafy segments It was at Larnach Castle gardens 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBob Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 that is an agave type plant. That is it's last act. The bloom. All of that is one season's growth. Then the mother plant will die. They typically "pup" - clone/s from the root - as a means of propagating. We have similar here, but ours aren't soft. They will TEAR YOU UP. lemme see if I can pop a pic of ours. They are still babies. They are called CenturyPlants because it takes several years before they bloom. They get quite large during that growth time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the Indiana High School finals today also. A little town I lived in for 3 years made it to the 1A final game....Morristown. It was like in the movie Hoosiers. Morristown won by 29 points. They played (and lost) in their only other appearance in a final game back in 1911. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
