The 36 Year Old Agave Americana Plant

[@nolanholmberg311]

I don’t know why, but the way they repeatedly called the agave, a cactus made me so viscerally angry for no reason

[@Snipjolt]

You are right, an agave plant is not a cactus. While both agave plants and cacti are members of the plant family called succulents, they are distinct and separate groups. Sorry this clip made you angry and thanks for commenting to educate me and future watchers.

Once those pods pop those seeds will travel. Also birds and bees just love the flowers. My neighbours plant spread seeds all over my back yard. Kept the seedlings. They keep sprouting for a few years. The seeds last or the seedlings are hardy. Didn't know till today how much people value it. I love rare finds.
