Common name: Variegated smooth agave

Description: Agave desmettiana 'Variegata' is a graceful, medium-sized agave with arching, smooth-margined leaves boldly edged in creamy yellow, creating a striking two-tone effect. Unlike many agaves, the leaves have few marginal teeth and curve gently outwards, giving the rosette an elegant, fluid appearance. It is faster-growing than most agaves and produces offsets freely, making it easier to propagate. An excellent container specimen or sheltered border plant, it brightens any sunny planting with its vivid variegation.

Other benefits: excellent for containers, variegated foliage, drought tolerant, low maintenance, deer resistant, produces offsets
