Agave potatorum 'Ikari Raijin Nishiki' is a beautiful smaller, solitary rosette forming Agave that can be 35-45cm wide with thick short leaves that have margins decorated with large teats holding small Red teeth and a Red terminal spine.
The leaves have strong pale Yellow to Cream variegation along the leaf margin edged toward the middle with interesting Blue-Grey streaks.
It is sometimes listed as Agave verschafeltii 'Marginata' and often compared to Agave potatorum 'Kichiokan Marginata', which grows to about the same size, but this cultivar had broader and thicker leaves held in a more open rosette.
