Agave Attenuata

A few weeks ago Diana @ludwigsdiana posted a photo of one of these plants and while I was out walking a few days ago I spotted this one outside one of the houses on the waterfront.

I believe it is called an Agave Attenuata according to Diana's post and I have never seen anything like it before. Perhaps someone would let me know if this is correct.

I think this pair look like green swans.

Wow! These are crazy big! Like a water fountain!

[Issi Bannerman]

They are amazing plants!

Oh Babs what a great find and shot, you even got two together! You are spot on with the name, also called foxtail or lions tail. I believe the flowering part is also called swans neck. Are they not amazing plants?
