Agave Montana

I have had this succulent for over sixty years, and it has decided it is time for it to flower. 
The bud is growing by the day, but I assume that it will become dormant as we move into winter and the flower will open in spring/summer.

Festschrift for Prof Mark Brisbane

https://www.archaeopress.com/Archaeopress/Products/9781803279237 Papers honor Mark's research on urbanization and trade in Britain and Europe, and his contributions to museums and museology. In two sections, the first provides up-to-date reviews of Hamwic (Saxon Southampton) and the second offers post-excavation studies in Britain and Europe and also includes developments in the Museum and Heritage sectors. I contributed Chapter 16 about the unique 'salt ships' of Nantwich to recognise Mark's leadership of the Eu unded Ecosal Atlantos project. Unfortuately due to funding restrctions an OPen Access version was not made availble as originally intended.
