Agave parryi 'Cream Spike' (Cream Spike Hardy Century Plant)

SunZone: 9-10 4" tall Origin: Mexico

We originally got this plant from Randy Baldwin of San Marcos Growers under the invalid name of Agave parryi 'Minima Variegata'. Not only was the cultivar name invalid, but some agave experts think it might not even be A. parryi. We're leaving the parryi species name intact, since it resembles the other A. parryi forms that we grow. This stunning specimen makes a compact 1' wide clump of blue leaves, each surrounded by a wide creamy border. Even where it's not hardy, A. 'Cream Spike' makes a stunning container specimen. This is not the same plant as A. parryi patonii 'Minor Variegata' or A. parryi 'Mexico Variegata'. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
