imho, i don't think the large one behind you is an americana either.. to me, the leaves are to clean, straight and narrow.. i could be wrong, i've been wrong before.. but mine has shorter, wider, and more curl to the leaves, with marks from the newer leaf made as they unfolded.. i'm not sure what those other two are either.. they look more tender and tropical than your typical desert plants..
oh, and that pretty desert flower standing in the center makes the picture that much more beautiful..
