Due to the winter weather, orders from these states will ship in the spring, April to May: CA, CO, IA, ID, KS, ME, MI, MN, MT, ND, NE, NH, NV, OR, SD, UT, VT, WA, WI, WY. And due to the extreme cold and wind which we experienced through the Christmas holidays of December 2022, many Osmanthus varieties won't be shipped until we are assured there is no cold damage. This may be as late as April or May, 2023. We may choose to delay shipping other plants as well.

Splendid Mexican Agave. This Agave is native to the mountains of Mexico and is a wonderful size for the residential landscape, as it gets to only about 20". It spreads by underground rhizomes, so it will eventually make an impenetrable mass. The light greenish-yellow center streak adds an air of sophistication. One of its best assets is its cold hardiness taking temperatures below 0°F with little damage. It does quite well with a fair amount of shade as long as it has good drainage. And Agaves respond surprisingly to adequate water, increasing their growth dramatically. It lends itself well as a container subject also, especially when one wants to take a vacation in the summer and you don't want to have to depend on your neighbors kid to water. The second picture is of the species Agave lophantha.
