Agave americana

Agave americana, affectionately known as the Blue Century Plant, hails from the beautiful landscapes of Mexico and boasts stunning rosette-shaped succulents. This resilient evergreen has spread its charm and has been embraced in various tropical regions around the globe. With its impressive large, lanceolate, gray-green rosettes, this plant can grow to a standout height and width of 6 to 8 feet over time. Each leaf is a unique marvel, showcasing spiny tips, lovely waxy blooms, and sharp edges that add character to its form. Although flowering happens infrequently, when it does, it puts on a spectacular show.

 

The life of Agave americana is quite unique—it's monocarpic, meaning it puts all its energy into blooming just once before saying goodbye. It can grace us with its presence for up to 100 years before flowering, which is why it’s often called the century plant. Typically, outdoor plants will bloom somewhere between the tenth and 25th year, whereas homegrown ones tend to take a break from flowering. But when an outdoor Agave americana finally decides to bloom, it proudly sends up a tall and elegant flowering stalk that can rise between 15 and 30 feet! This stalk looks a bit like a narrow telephone pole, sporting horizontal branches near the top that are adorned with beautiful greenish-yellow flowers, each measuring about 3 to 4 inches long, blooming in lovely clusters at the tips of the branches. Over time, you’ll notice suckers and offsets rooting at the base of each rosette, often leading to a delightful colony of new plants. Even after a plant flowers and dies, the offsets surrounding it keep the story alive as they continue to grow.

 

Agave americana is also quite reliable in winter, thriving in USDA zones 8-10. This lovely plant flourishes best in full sun with sandy/gritty, well-drained, and dry to medium moisture soil. For container gardening, using a gritty, cactus-type potting mix is a great choice, but ensuring a sharp drainage system is crucial to keep root rot at bay. It’s quite accepting of dry soil and drought conditions too! Plus, you can propagate this wonderful plant from either seeds or offsets, making it even easier to share its beauty with others.

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more. I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.
