A medium-sized solitary agave from the semi-arid highlands between 4,000 and 7,000 feet of Puebla and Oaxaca. It has broad gray leaves that form in an open symmetrical rosette to 1 to 2 feet tall by 2 to 3 feet wide. As with all Agave and most succulents, you must use a well-draining, sandy succulent potting soil mix. Seek out mixtures specially designed for use with succulents and cactus, or make your own mixture. This species is very slow-growing, and like most Agave it prefers to be a bit pot bound. Furthermore, Agave does not like to be handled much.LISTING...
