man thats so... sad and beautiful in a way, they live so long and explode so tall and beautiful for just a short time and finally die... like us, saving up our whole life just for that little window of pleasure we get when we retire until we shortly die after...

I have this growing in the front of my house. I live in Florida. I had no idea what this thing in the middle was.

:36 to :41, what is that sound? Just curious 😳

these plants are fascinating

That family guy clip was awesome

So do these also prosuxe agave nectar as well?

Very beautiful, ours have already grown it’s massive stock and is still growing like a agave Americana, are they able to sprout a stalk multiple times because our Americana didn’t die after the stock got full height and then broke of to the side. I also have been harvesting the lil pups that are growing, the pups I’m harvesting are about 2 years old and about 2 feet around and 2 feet tall.

Are you in San Diego or Socal? I've noticed these trees everywhere, my neighbor's yard, the beach, the parks, the side of highways, etc. It's just so cool that all of them are blooming at the same time!

It’s so incredible to think I had walked and ridden my bicycle past those houses on the strand so many times not knowing what these plants were. Wow! And that dark (see: ugly) 70s lookin’ wooden house i think was finally bought and going to be demolished/redone if it hasn’t been already

Just wondering when I should expect the 35' stalk to fall over? I suppose I should cut it down safely before that happens? It looks very heavy.

@hoohoohoblin

I don’t know. I left mine up for more than a year, and it never fell over, so I ended up cutting it down. It is actually very very light when it’s dead.

@@hoohoohoblin Awesome, it's the most amazing plant I ever grew. That stalk is the talk of the neighborhood. The growth rate was easily a foot a day. I didn't do my home work about the toxic juice and got sprayed with it while cutting down a bunch of pups off the the mother plant. It burns and stings and caused me to stop working. I tried washing it off my arms with poison oak soap and then rubbing alcohol, but neither worked. Just had to take Benidryl and went to sleep. I wont make that mistake twice.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about plants but I'd assume it got it's name the same way a 100 year old egg did. It may not actually be a whole century, but it takes a lot of patience for you to get the result.

It's why common names need to be thrown out and botanical names should he normalized! Plus, it's fun, the second name (species) typically describes the plant.
