Yuccado lives

#1

Post by yuccado »

Hello to all those that knew or heard of Yuccado.

I'm now permanently settled in Salta, Argentina. Here Yuccado lives in a much better climate than can be found anywhere in the mainland US (except for Santa Barbara, California - but who can afford to live there!) I killed so many plants in Texas and here I kill them too but mostly to neglect and not to freezes, horrid heat, floods and drought.

Crazy as it is I'm selling plants here viva internet! The first offering is my Agave americana protoamericana 'yuccado' not available in the US. Will post image of her when the upload here is strong enough.

Good to hear you're still in the game. We won't cry for you!
Agave
"American aloe plant," 1797, from Greek Agaue, proper name in mythology (mother of Pentheus), from agauos "noble," perhaps from agasthai "wonder at".

I guess on the foothills of the Andes you won't be worrying about rising sea levels! I checked it out, never knew before Argentina was so big. 2300 miles from north to south! The semi-tropical sounds pretty good too. ::wink::

^I could be mistaken, but believe the OP is Carl, rather than Wade.
