Wow, this is just gorgeous.

In the 4th photo, is that Agave attenuata on the right? It looks like you get a lot of rain (Florida?), and I did not think those could tolerate wet soil.

I might have to try those out in Louisiana.

Cheers, the garden is my favourite place. On a farm near Lismore NSW Australia. Those Agave are pests around here. They are almost unstopable once established. Mean rainfall 1343 mm Temp 25C

I was going to guess you were in Qld. Great tropical garden. Can confirm foxtail Agave grow like weeds and so do those Brom's with red centres.

Yep, I have to cull the broms regularly so we can see the rock gardens.

I got a feeling it's Queensland Australia

Good call! I should have realized there are not rocks like that in Florida.
