Oh awesome! Very nice agaves! Those grow wild on the side of the road here! The huge ones are always so impressive. Are those variegated ones, the small ones off to the right of the blue? I like your orchid cacti also...do you have to be very careful in there not to get poked?

Hi Justin
2 elect. radiator type oil filled heaters.I think they are 1500watts? I have a generator if power go out.I have not needed it for the last 4-5years.I have a box fan on low moving across the heater fins to circ the heat. Night temps avarage around 55*F even when its -10 outside with wind. I had N gas at my other home and had LOTS of problems. thanks George

Yea the 2 smaller ones are aureo and medio varigated ?.YES i get stuck all the time.The agave and many of the cactus are my dads he comes every weekend to tend them.Hes the reason i need more space! I had hundreds more orchids a few years back but gave them up due to work/family.Now i got the habit back BIG time because of this forum and everyones cool pics.THANK YOU!
