Notes
|
Deer, rabbit, and drought resistant
clumper in the Agave (Agavaceae) Family grown for its
grey-green thornless foliage and awe inspiring sharply
contrasted pink summer blooms; bright and soft leaved
structured plant without the spiky foliage (ouch!) normally
equated with Agaves; will tolerate partial shade; hardy.
