  • Notes

This attractive agave forms rosettes of 2' long leaves which have an overall vase shaped habit. Foliage is fleshy, pale green with yellow and dark green margins. Spines on margin and terminal are reddish brown. This succulent reaches 2' tall and 3' wide. It tolerates full to part sun with low to medium watering. It may be frost sensitive. Beautiful plant for containers. Blooms are infrequent.
Frost tolerant to 25 F. Alto try Agave desmettiana 'variegata' and Agave angustifolia.
