Agave 'Great White Shark' is a 2023 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction of a plant we created here at the nursery. This dazzling sport of Agave x nikelima 'Sharkskin Shoes' started as a tiny streak on a single leaf that we were able to eventually isolate into a wide edge. Mature, slowly-offsetting plants reach 18" tall x 30" wide. Whether it's hardy in your climate, or you need to keep this in a container, you will be dazzled by its elegant beauty.
