The Agave americana is easy to grow and cold hardy down to -9 degrees.
It is one of the most dramatic and stunning Agaves. It's fleshy arching leaves are arranged in rosettes and are characterised with a Silvery, Blue leaved with spiny edges.
Great for exotic gardens, it's bold silhouette makes a wonderful architectural centrepiece; which is why we often use it as a centrepiece in our displays at the Nursery
Please Note: Succulents change colour throughout the year and the plants we deliver can look different from the pictures. All plants are shipped bare root (without soil).
