I can get them in Az, but transporting them to California is not so convenient. Can take as many as you have and glad to pay. :roll:

It isn't pups you want, it's bulbils. In about three months or so you should be able to procure hundreds at a time.

You might even be able to find some locally, just keep your eyes peeled for bulbil laden stalks in street medians, shopping malls, etc. Probably a long shot in your area, but murpheyi is everywhere here in central AZ.
Agave
"American aloe plant," 1797, from Greek Agaue, proper name in mythology (mother of Pentheus), from agauos "noble," perhaps from agasthai "wonder at".

Bulbils would be wonderful but it’s been slim pickings to find one murpheyi locally. Looks like I will be taking a road trip to AZ. And thank you kindly.
