I found a picture online that's similiar...it was labeled as atype of agave, it just amazes me if it is because so many were blooming at once. When we looked at a mountain side it looked like it was covered with trees, but they were really the blooms from these.

They were also more Green and less blue that the agave's I've seen before.
Something else that made me laugh in Colombia were the restaraunts I saw:
Mario Bross. (like the video game)
Alf (like the 80's TV Show)
Krusty Burger (as from the Simpsons)
All real restaraunts with the cartoons on the signs.
