Tallest Century Plant?

And not far from the others was this VERY tall Century Plant. Never seen one this tall, either. Have you?
In fact, it was SO tall I couldn't get it all in the picture. Note, normally you see just the bottom part of the century plant, which  looks like a big agave, but sometimes you'll see a tree-like think grow out of it. This one was a monster. Shades of Little Shop of Horrors
Like the cactus flowers below, we're told that century  plants rarely blossom. Looks like this one IS to some extent, anyway...

  1. The tree was too tall to fit in the picture... it's about double whatyou see here.
