These plants are so beautiful, and I love the way every leaf is imprinted with the teeth pattern of other leaves. The first time I saw these kinds of succulents growing outdoors was when my parents took our family to California to see our cousins. They had several very large Agave growing in their back yard. I was a kid and several times a day, while were staying with our relatives, I would go outside and just look at the plants with endless fascination.
