Agave americana medio-picta alba
The plain green form of Agave americana grows into a bit of a monster and needs lots of space to show it off to its best advantage. This variety which has a white stripe down the centre of the leaf is a much more well behaved and is slower growing eventually forming a small rosette to about 1 metre across. 'Pups' appear around the base of the plant and it also sends off runners to establish new plants about a metre or so from the parent.This is one of the choice Agaves to grow and it is both cold and drought hardy.
2017 update: I always have plenty of stock in 140mm, less in larger sizes.
