I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. It sounds like you're doing a great job of taking care of your garden, even in the midst of grief. Your succulents and cactus plants are beautiful, and I'm glad that they're doing well.
I'm also glad that you were able to get some help with trimming the agave plants. They can be quite dangerous, so it's important to be careful when working with them.
I hope you're able to stay hydrated and cool during the heat wave. It sounds like it's going to be a tough week, but I'm sure you'll get through it.
