Would you care for some bulbils?
by CactusJordi May 22, 2010 9:21 PM
infloresence collapses under its own weight it is covered with so many bulbils
by palmbob Jul 20, 2010 9:48 PM
always wondered how bulbils manage to root once they fell of the stalk... well, turns out they are sort-of rooted already into the stalk.
by palmbob Jan 25, 2011 5:05 PM
another bulbil, at the 'falling-off' size
by palmbob Mar 6, 2011 11:15 PM
One of the prettiest Agaves around! And the friendliest! With no prickly spines, this Agave is very easy to incorporate into your garden.
