(Paleoagave bracteosa) In 2008, we pulled a unique plant of the Northern Mexican Agave bracteosa from a seed-grown crop at Arizona's Mountain States Nursery. Each rosette was dramatically larger than any form of Agave bracteosa we've seen. It's taken us 15 years to have enough of this slowly-offsetting spineless century plant to finally share as a 2024 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction.
