Agave ovatifolia

Post by jankol »

This is my ovatifolia. About 16 years old, never had any winter protection.
Agave bracteosa also thrives in an English winter.

What a beautiful plant!

It would be good to know which part of England this is growing in with you? English winters in the north of Northumbria can be quite different from those in southern Cornwall.
