*RETAIL - Agave americana 'Opal'
A variegated agave from the larger group often just called 'Marginata' or 'Variegata,' this one most pleasingly variegated in creamy yellow on upright, blue-green foliage with sharp spines. To 4-5ft tall and wide. Shared with us by plantsman Tony Avent as having been hardy in coastal Virginia. Though it has been nuked in North Carolina below 10F with winter moisture, it does show promise as being one of the tougher of the americana group as a very similar plant has grown unharmed in Portland gardens for a number of years. We expect at least 15F, mid USDA zone 8, and possibly lower if winter dry. In any zone a striking pot or container plant. Sun, well-drained soil, and little summer water.
