Agave desmettiana 'Variegata' 3g

The Agave desmettiana ‘Variegata’ is a stunning succulent admired for its archingly curved, sword-shaped leaves with creamy white margins and soft green centers, forming a lush, decorative rosette that adds texture and color to any garden or container. This elegant agave can grow up to 3–4 feet tall and 4–5 feet wide, creating a substantial focal point while maintaining a graceful, sculptural form. It thrives in full sun to partial shade with well-draining soil and requires low water, making it perfect for xeriscaping and drought-tolerant landscapes. While primarily grown for its vibrant foliage, mature plants may occasionally produce a flower spike up to 10 feet tall, topped with pale yellow blooms, after which the main rosette typically dies back but produces offsets to continue growth. Its striking variegation, graceful shape, and easy-care nature make it a standout choice for collectors and gardeners seeking low-maintenance beauty. Best grown in USDA Hardiness Zones 9–11.
