Widely distributed in west-central Mexico, Agave vilmoriniana hangs off cliffs in its typical habitat. It has long, recurved leaves that are a light blue-green color. We use this plant in Tucson landscaping, where it takes surprisingly little water to survive. These variegates have the typical leaves short through with white or light yellow longitudinal stripes. These plants are rooted offsets (rooted bulbils) in 2-gallon pots.
