Agave 'Snow Glow' has long been one of our favorite century plants for containers, despite it not being winter hardy in our climate...serious SoCal zone envy. Agave 'Snow Glow' is a 2005 Kelly Griffin sport of a hybrid he made between Agave ocahui and Agave attenuata. Agave 'Snow Glow' eventually forms a 2' tall x 3' wide specimen (8 years) with bayonet-like, glaucous, blue-green, soft-edged leaves, each edged with a wide cream border, highlighted further by the red leaf margins...simply stunning. Because it almost never puts out any pups, propagation has been painfully slow.
