If I remember correctly, the sad thing that happens to an Agave, after the fool blooming, she dies. Am I wrong? I love cactus as well.

It sure looks like you live in Calf. We use to live in ElToro. I had a cactus garden much like yours. The people who bought the house took it all out. Trying to grow cactus in East Texas, Tyler is tuff to say the less. We have a 85-95% humidy most of the time.

I thought it was about time I revisisted your garden. Although I get to see it quite often in person, the photographs are magnificent. The page showing the growth of the cacti reminded me of when you first started the garden. It is amazing how fast some of them have grown.

Hello Ueli, it just happened that I visited your homepage with your nice cactus garden. I remember very nice days with my family in California when I was working on a workshop as a resident. That is many many year ago ('91 and '93). I will not forget BBQ or Saddlerack with you. It is good to see that you are o.k. and that you are still an e pert in everything you are doing. That is how I know and like you. I wish you and your family all the best and I hope that I can manage to California again some day. Best regards Stefan Hoffmann from Germany P.S.: You called me 'The guy with the terrible German accent' ...
