When I first looked at the top photo I thought I was looking at a sea urchin. Very unusual plants.

Looks like a pincushion to me . At first I also thought it looked like a till because of the roots. A ball shaped till???

hi Andy,
Wish i bought it (albomarginated agave)... pictures was taken in Hong Kong flower street. The price is pretty steep for that albomarginated agae. In the end, have to give up.

I mainly collect hoya and orchids. Started C&S not too long ago and now tillies (to be precise, i started brom many years ago... due to limited space, i have to give up... and now started to look at tillies)
