Description
English:

A single flower stalk protrudes high above a clump of agave, backed by a bright blue sky.

A large massing of agave (Agave americana) grows just south of the ranch house. In 2002, the largest plant in the mass was eight feet across with a flower stalk measuring approximately thirty-feet tall. According to Carey Stanton, this and all other agaves on the island came from Pelican Bay, an area with planted features on the north coast of Santa Cruz Island.
