Agaves and Cruise Ships

Large green agaves fill the foreground, while cruise ships rest docked behind them beneath a clear blue sky.

It’s the Agave attenuatas and the cruise ship terminal and the cruise ship along the Embarcadero in SF!

Tree Aloe

Tall aloe plant with pointed, spiky leaves growing in a lush garden with other greenery. Nearby are a blue-topped tree stump, another agave-like plant, and a wooden bench in partial sunlight.

Mariposa St., San Francisco

That’s a nice Aloe marlothii hanging out in the Dogpatch. Nice? Just nice? No no sorry no, I meant awesome. Gorgeous. Fancy.

Cactus San Francisco

A garden with tall cacti, agave plants, and spiky palm trees in front of a modern building with green window shades and beige walls.

It’s San Francisco’s latest Cactus garden up in the air at the Salesforce Park and that’s a San Pedro cactus and there’s an agave, oh and a yucca…. Nice!

A bloomed out Agave in Union Square. I took the photo while facing the sun, so I then added a bunch of filters to hide the fact I was facing into the sun. And then I revealed my secret to you anyway!

Echeveria San Francisco

Embarcadero Center, San Francisco

These Echeveria and Cyclamen are right outside my dentist’s office. Is that a good thing?

Succulence San Francisco

The Succulence San Francisco

If you haven’t been to Succulence in San Francisco then you must not live in San Francisco because if you live in San Francisco and read a succulent focused Cactus Blog like this one then you will have already had to have been to Succulence in Bernal Heights.

They have display windows where they get to put together nice creative displays. We don’t have windows at Cactus Jungle, just a gate.
