Been looking at photos of this plant in the wild, and becoming alarmed at the rapid rate of growth (faster than all other Agaves in my yard so far). Yikes. Probably need to move it.

got some sun scorch this month... not sure why... guess the unusually hot weather and the sun hitting at an angle this plant doesn't usually see with that heat (usually the Magnolia protects during high heat times of year)
