~Leaves Of The Blue Agave~

~Agave tequilana~

And yes, this is the plant that
tequila is made from, yippee!!!
But be extremely cautious.
Those little black spikes
are over two inches long
and as hard as forged steel.
Plus they are coated with
a very unpleasant toxin.
If you get stabbed by one,
not only will you bleed,
but it will itch and burn
for several, very long, days.
Is it worth a good stiff drink?

Thanks for stopping in.
Have a good tomorrow!
