Terrace planting
Matt and I decided the move some plants today, and give them a new lease on life. Several ratty looking plants had been planted at the bottom of the terraces to grow on a bit, and were starting to look pretty nice.We dug them out and put them on the new top terraces and brights bed today:
1 Agave lechuguilla
8 Agave lophantha
1 Agave salmiana
1 Agave tequiliana 1 Agave salmiana
2 Yucca aloifolia
1 Yucca elephantipes (variegated)
1 Yucca elephantipes (variegated)
1 Yucca "Silver Star"
This also involved moving several wheelbarrow loads of compost to the new terraces and amending that area a lot.We also moved an Agave parryi to the middle border, and planted a dozen Agave pups of various kinds in the "pup farm" we created for growing on small Agaves. I put several cuttings of Aloe striatula in the brights bed too, and several areas got a deep watering. Hope that tides the plants over for a while.
