Here are some of the more interesting plants that have made their way into the collection recently.
I had the pleasure of visiting the Danger Garden in mid May and saw Loree's gorgeous specimens of Agave 'Sharkskin' and Agave utahensis eborispina. Of course these aren't plants that pop up a lot at local nurseries but through the magic of the interweb, look at what arrived in the mail recently.
With wrapping like this, you know something special is inside.

Surprisingly, Aeonium 'Party Platter' was found in a flat of assorted succulents at a big box store. It's a hybrid. Do you think that Aeonium tabuliforme might be one of it's parents?

This bit of coolness is Haworthia cooperi var. truncata.
That Portland garden is dangerous and so is surfing the net for plants. The buttons on the keyboard are so easy to push.
