Striking, medium-sized agave that provides great visual intrest. Will grow to be 1.5 -3' tall X 2.5 -6' wide. This Arizona-native can withstand full sun and reflected heat with relatively little maintenance. Needs protection from the agave snout weevil Native on foothils and mountain slopes 3-6000'. Rarely forms offsets. Similar to palmeri but palmeri has red tinged flowers, leaves more glaucous and larger teeth.
