Agave 'Bleached Blonde' is a stunning gold-leaf mutation of Agave 'Kissho Kan' that we discovered here at Plant Delights Nursery/JLBG and introduced in 2017. The tightly offsetting Agave 'Bleached Blonde' shows amazing vigor, despite the golden color. The 12" tall x 18" wide rosettes are brightest in early spring, when they actually seem to glow. As summer arrives, the color shifts to chartreuse, which helps maintain vigor. We are truly excited to be able to share this new century plant introduction, which is sure to brighten both containers and tropical landscape settings.
