Agave 'Butter Cream' is a superb new 2023 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction of a clone created by Wade Roitsch of the former Yucca Do Nursery. Agave 'Butter Cream is a wide-edged sport of Agave 'Cream Spike', that boasts a rich green center, surrounded by a narrow light grey green stripe, just inside the wide border that emerges creamy yellow before aging to white. Due to the large amount of cream white on the leaves, it is extremely slow growing. We've grown this since 2012, and this is the first time we've had any to spare. We expect mature size to be around 3" tall x 6" wide with great age.
