After a decade of propagation, we are finally able to share one of the most spectacular of all variegated sports of the northern Mexico native, Agave victoriae-reginae. Agave 'Sun King' will eventually reach 1' tall x 18" wide, but that may happen for your grandkids. The thick, green leaves are highlighted by a brilliant yellow center.
