Agave weberi
Weber's Agave
Description
This is a striking medium-sized agave that grows at a moderate rate to 6' x 6'. The leaves are blue-green and have smooth margins. Accepts full sun or partial shade. Very frost tolerant. This is a bold specimen plant. After several years a flower stalk will appear in spring with yellow flowers. Like all agaves it will die after flowering but often produces offsets that can be transplanted.
