More Food; Agave in Growing Zone

[Fifty Foot Ant]

I don't know if this is just me or not, but does anyone else want to be able to grow agave in the growing zone, or have more food options with different effects? Just curious.

I guess I already asked for this once...
I always want to give different stuff, for my colonist to eat; the current choice is quite limited.
Also, a couple of new plants (and mushrooms, growing in the dark! Those are crops too!) each alpha would be a welcome addition. One that doesn't require much to implement also.
Back on track, I am still wondering, why in the (Rim)world I cannnot grow agave.

Agave is meant to be wild, and the ecosystem is reaallyy delicate with the plants we already have.

I get that it's supposed to desert food, but maybe at least allow it in a growing zone? And not allow strawberries in the desert? This would make some sense with the new temperature system.

No one else cares? Ok

There was once a mod that adds Agave to the Growing Zone. Can't remember what it is, or even if it's compatible with A7.

Would love to know if anyone knew what the name of this mod was and it was A7 compatible, thanks for mentioning this StorymasterQ!

So. I have made a colony in arid  Shrub land. I walled myself off, then removed all the plants except for Agave, now it srouts everywwhere because it is the dominant and sole species. Whenever my garden isnt producing, I Harvest some of the agave. ALSO Try making an Orchard they work great and i havent needed to use agave since

Thanks for the suggestions, this is probably as close as I'll get, but I wanted Agave as a Growing option in the zone, not just harvestable, but again, with the new temperature system Agave might be an option ONLY in Arid and Desert, and Strawberry ONLY in Temperate and Tropical.
