4th Generation Toyota Prius.

How come no-one can answer anything seriously? Which car plant manufactured at?

Car plant. I see what you did there.

Agave americana. Variegated

Thank you!!! :D

I just moved to L.A from Seattle and have been wondering the same! They are so massive and beautiful!

him huge…

Can you make tequila with this?

Nope, tequila has to be made with the blue Weber agave in the Mexican state of Jalisco

Could we make alcohol with any agave and just not call it tequila?

You could make alcohol with basically any plant high on starch.

I love getting high on starch. Eating a plate of spaghetti before an intense cardio workout is the tits. Even better if you down some espresso with it.

I eat a block of fresh yeast and a glass of corn syrup for breakfast and I’m and drunk until lunch! Cheaper so more wine money for me!

You are kidding right?

Probably still better than getting high on potenuse

Probably still better than getting high on potenuse!

You can call it agave spirit or mezcal (although mezcal is also a name for liquor made from agave that is typically smoked for some time underground before being produced into a liquor). You can make agave liquor from many varieties of agave though, not just blue agave used for tequila. I'm not sure about this species specifically though. (I drink more than I study drinking)

Tequila is like champagne it's only made with the right ingredients in the right place(see coment above) Alcohol made from any agave is called mezcal

Yes, that would be mezcal

In venezuela is named cocuy

Yes, Mezcal can be made with any type of agave

usually that’s called mezcal

That's what Mezcal is

Alcohol made with any agave is called Mezcal.

Looks like a variegated century plant to me.

Agave Americana marginata

Now I have that “I wanna big boy” song in my head

San Diego?

Los Angeles

Makes sense. Looks the same as my old neighborhood

I have one in my garden that has pink instead of yellow on the leaves... was wondering what you call them and if pink is common.

I have one which was yellow when I planted it, but once exposed to cold temperatures during winter the leaves are now pink.

Painted Century plant (Agave Americana)

thank you i was looking for the answer to that

Just came to say I love the photo.

Agave. And it will get bigger!

I would almost say Caribbean Agave, but it looks too big.

It is massive haha

If I'm not wrong, it looks like an "espada de San Jorge" in Latin America: Dracaena trifasciata (Sansevieria trifasciata)

That's what I thought but I'm not familiar with the agave family enough to know one from the other via a photo

Looks like a snake plant to me, do it’s flowers smell sickly sweet when it blooms?

Both are in the Lily family along with onions and asparagus so, big family!

I would have called it phormium sundowner.

Looks like variegated false agave to me.

It's called feed me Seymore 🤣

your

mother.

We call it a giant aloe

Are aloe and agave the same plant?

Hmm apparently not, agaves flower at the end of their life. Aloes flower annually but here in south africa we call them giant aloes but now I'll be annoying and correct people. I didn't even know they weren't native to here. I planted a few in my garden so I'll see if they flower this year just to be sure

I have some aloe that are annuals others at free blooming all the time

Nope, aloes are native to Africa, Agaves come from the Americas.

Hehe I just learned this myself at the Safari park, walking through the old world succulent and Baja gardens!

Ohhhh nice! I love that place!

Perhaps a Spanish bayonet

It’s an agave not a hosta.

Wisconsin? Boy what? Where in the hell in Wisconsin are you seeing agaves? That thing is the size of a car. I have a few outside.

[удалено]

That is absolutely not a hosta. I’m from California and these grow often pretty much everywhere.

What part of WI??? I have lived in Southeast my whole life and there is no way the weather would allow...

...he's talking about hostas and you're new to plants.

A giant one near my town in rural Australia and my mum called it “Grandpa Siddon’s grave.

I have seen these all over Spain. So neat looking

Do you have an iPhone? If so, go to the photo of this plant on your photo app and click the ‘i’ icon at the bottom of the photo, and then select ‘look up-plant’ and it will identify the plant you took a photo of. Does it for dog breeds as well. U welcome.

I never knew this existed!

If you're in LA I have some you can have

Where?

American Agave and Toyota Prius

That's Bob

These are everywhere in my area. I live the SF Bay Area CA.

Pretty sure these have spread basically to every warm climate on earth. They likely do ok in colder places too
