Love this yucca garden in AZ.

That was fabulous, Aaron, wow.
Wonder where they bought all those big yuccas.
They did say the Oak was from Mexico but nothing else.

Oh to have been a volunteer helping them plant and re-rock the areas.
I'd have loved that.

Surprised though that they're planting the yuccas in a "silted over wash" (instead of on a mound) that they're going to re-rock.
Sounds like water settles there, hope they'll be OK.

Those beauties would've cost big bucks.

Have you ever visited that garden, Aaron?

Thanks for the video!

Here is a vid that says where some of the yuccas come from.

I would love too have a job in that garden.

That garden is in the Phoenix valley I belive, and water is not going to stay long there. Phoenix is kind of low in elevation for yuccas so they would welcome the wash area. Also...most are out of the flow of water on the side mounds. My guess is they are rerocking the area for looks more than function.

I have not been there but I would like too.

That is a nice "forest" What was that agave that the lady was raving about in the making of the forest? Quite surprised to hear the word "Monsoon" but I guess with months of hot dry conditions ... when it rains, it rains. Thanks for showing Aaron.

Thanks for that second vid, Aaron.
Wow, 600 agaves propagated in their GH, and how lucky was that to get those yuccas from the road project.

Great project.

Aaron, the Bayfield Bunch are heading SW next weekend.
If only that were all of us, huh?

Maybe they'll post some pics of the first deserts they encounter.
