Re: Agave happenings
I'm amazed from looking through the pics, that the flower spikes are so huge compared to the plant size.
Colin, I'll put you down for a forby then mine have a nice socky smell which fortunately is not so bad now I have an ioniser. I used to walk into the room and think... eew.. it smells like a teenager's room.
