fighting chance

Now that there’s a fence around Javelina Cafe, this Parry’s Agave will finally be able to have babies.
Agaves send out runners (called offsets) under ground which Javelina find irresistible!
Note the pup in the photo below has already been chewed on. The center looks strong, though.

Also….a bloom has been allowed to mature, thanks to the fence.
I’m really looking forward to next Spring 🙂
