Description
A small century plant enhances the landscape at a local office in Duncan, Oklahoma. The Century Plant only blooms once during its lifetime, then dies back. Its leaves are filled with water, thus its nickname the American aloe. The Agave americana, a succulent, is often a blue-gray color. If you look closely, you see impressions, like relief art in nature, on each of the leaves.

Ha, that's funny! This thing was huge, I should have placed a banana by it for scale.
