Agave 'Bluebell Giants' is a 2016 Plant Delights Nursery introduction of a seed strain of century plants that originated from our 2014 cross of two of our largest and hardiest century plants, Agave x protamericana and Agave x pseudoferox 'Bellville'. If the size of the parents is any indication, we expect the offspring to reach at least 7' tall x 12' in width or larger. Each Agave 'Bluebell Giants' seedling is different, but the consistent traits we've seen so far are fast growth rate, nice blue foliage, and upturned leaf tips. Agave 'Bluebell Giants' contains genes from at least three agave species (Agave americana, A. asperrima, and A. gentryi). This is a limited-time offer or until we run out of seed.
