This is one of the hardiest agaves with thick blue-green leaves forming a large rosette... one of the charter members of Anti-Social Plants 'R Us! Each leaf can reach 18" long and 5" wide. In time, expect a 15' tall spike of dramatic yellow flowers. In the colder parts of the country, it is essential that the plants be kept dry in the winter months.
