Help with plant identification

Hello,

No, dont worry..I was just whinging about my experience, as I've lost a couple recently. Including one of Stuart's seedlings.. :curses: I've now gone down the no soil route as I have my Agavoides collection outside. Now I worry about if I should water them :lol: I must post some pictures soon of th...

At that point I would have gave it the chop and re-rooted it, in a fresh pot, as someone said the old stem may have thrown up some offsets.

Re: Help with a dying Wax Agave Solved

I also agree with Terry and Rod, but I am a bit concerned about what your pot, which seems to be glass and might not have drainage holes. If that's so, then this is not a good idea.

It grew massive, super healthy, to about 5 inches wide and I repotted it about 2 years ago, which it handled fine. Recen...
