Agave vilmoriniana

Tis is a totally different spineless Agave unlike any other, with a smooth spreading rosette of elegantly curving leaves. Its unmistakeable "octopus shape" is a highlight both in a succulent collection and in the exotic garden.

Agave vilmoriniana grows wild in NW Mexico, typically on cliffs, at 600-1700 m asl. It takes well light frosts and winter humidity and thrives outdoors in coastal Mediterranean countries.
