Agave x parryspina is an exciting cross of two North American century plant species, Agave parryi and Agave flexispina. We haven't seen mature plants, but expect it to form 2' tall x 3' wide blue-leaved rosettes. So far, the vigor of the seedlings are in excess of both parents. This is most likely a one-time offering since seed may not be available again for many decades.
