I drove by this particular Agave plant for at least a week, marveling over how beautiful it was. I was particularly interested in how the celadon color of it's leaves contrasted against the blue of it's neighbor plant. And if you have ever seen an agave bloom, you know that it is simply an extraordinary thing. All of the plants resources go into producing this one, final message to the world of it's beauty and resilience. The plant will die after having bloomed, but it will have birthed pups underneath and fed countless pollinators in it's final hurrah.
