Agave victoriae-reginae 'Kizan' is one of the most sought after variegated forms of the North American native Queen Victoria century plant. Agave 'Kizan' forms a stunning 1' tall x 18" solitary rosette of thick, wide green leaves, edged with a wide creamy border that is truly spectacular. Because offsets are extremely rare and because Agave 'Kizan' is very slow growing, it's taken us a decade to have enough to share, and even now, quantities are very limited. The variegated leaf pattern holds well if it receives enough sun and is not grown under UV-resistant plastic. As with most variegated forms of Agave victoriae-reginae, they must not be overwatered either in summer or winter.
