(aka: Paleoagave bracteosa) Agave bracteosa 'Daddy Longlegs' is a superb Hans Hansen creation that we've grown since 2008, and were finally able to share as a 2020 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction. This sport of Agave bracteosa 'Calamar' forms a rarely-offsetting, 18" tall x 2' wide, rosette of arching, scabrous, but spineless leaves, each edged with a wide lighter green border. Our quantities are extremely limited, and once these are gone, it will be several years before more are available.
