Agave ID please
Lost the label for this. Seems to quite well and give me plenty of offsets to give away.
Joined Havering branch 2006, although have been growing on and off since the age of ten!
Have a large balanced collection of both cacti and succulents but enjoy growing cristate, monstrose and generally anything a bit weird!

Re: Agave ID please
It's a form of Agave potatorum v. verschaffeltii the 'Butterfly agave', sometimes going under the name 'Kissho Kan' . One of the prettiest dwarf agaves!

Re: Agave ID please
That's certainly a very pretty plant and looks very well grown.

If you are interested to swap an offset or two for some seeds from my seed list, just let me know.Cactus Kid wrote:Seems to quite well and give me plenty of offsets to give away.

Re: Agave ID please
That's a really nice plant. The contrast between the blue and red on the spines is amazing and I shall most certainly have to put one on my 'want' list...
