Hi, all. Kyle in TN here. I love pretty much all succulents and desert dwellers. I don't have a large collection. Some of these and some of those. Love Aloes and Agaves the most I suppose. I have lost IDs to some and hope to find help here as time goes by.
Here are a few I have:

Welcome to our xeric nuthouse! Your plants look very well kept.

That is A. utahensis var. eborispina found in habitat. Plenty more here: Habitat: Mojave National Preserve (& Vicinity)

Re: TN Zone Pusher
I will take this request to another forum if need be. Just let me know. But I thought maybe as an introductory I might ask here.
Been growing this one outside for about 7-8 years. Lost ID. Raised from seed and thought might be A. parryi. After looking at many pics here not sure? Any way to positively ID?

Has a definite A. parryi look about it...

Re: TN Zone Pusher
Question: Is it ok to ask for IDs in the 'talk' forums? I have several aloes I've either lost ID on or didn't have in the first place. Thanks.

Re: TN Zone Pusher
Yes, that is one of the main topics of discourse.
