Agave is one of my favourite plants genera. I especially appreciate the color of the leaves together with their fierce spines. Most of the plants I am growing are from seed sowed about ten years ago. All pictures are taken in february 2008.

I knew Paola a few months ago, while talking about conophytum in a post on the italian forum on cactus and succulent plants. Besides being an active member of the forum, Paola is a keen grower of many african plants. While her main interest is about asclepiads, she also grows haworthias, mesembs and does not hesitate when a nice cactus lies within her reach.
Despite living near Turin, which is not the warm place her plants would deserve, Paola's small greenhouse is full of little treasures, mostly grown from seeds, and I was really happy when she agreed on maintaining a new gallery on the site.

Many aloes look at their best during late fall, about the end of the flowering period.
This morning I was hanging around the terrace and my attention fell on these plants and their beatiful colours
