Description

This is a medium-sized Agave to about 3' tall and wide. The blue green to gray green leaves show striking bud imprints of the surrounding leaves. This Agave tolerates extreme heat and full sun with minimal supplemental irrigation. It is similar to Agave americana but with a smaller scale. The pups will fill in after the parent dies.
