Think that's it. And, duh, I have a few!

Now, Bill - sloth is no excuse.

I believe rules of fair play would allow you to proxy your turn to someone less fortunate (say, from KY)...

Yup you got it!! : ) Here I was worried it was going to be too easy! lol

you are absolutely right victor - i will keep that in mind going forward

Good, Bill. You might also keep in mind that I am not vv. ^_^

i knew exactly who you were referring to.

Well, it is only because Meredith gave a lot of good clues for us non-perennialists.

Ever since Jen put this up, I've wanted to post some closeups I took a few years ago (NOT in KY).

So, yeehah!

Agave

alien invasion

Jen is really close (it is a succulent), with a nod to Bill - as he recognizes his kin.

This plant is a resident of the Ruth Bancroft Garden, Walnut Creek CA - and shows up in their website banner.

Aloe?

Celeste got it - at least, as how the tag on the plant listed it. Aloe schidigera, though I cannot seem to find any references to this exact nomenclature.

Here are more images of this impressive monster, from December 2009.

WOW! Could treat cuts for the entire population.

Wow is right!! Didn't realize they got that big!! Aloe is the only thing that I could think of .

OK, this one should be easy.......
