Blue Flame Agave
Agave ‘Blue Flame’
Blue Flame Agave is a vigorous and dramatic hybrid, forming large, undulating rosettes that resemble blue-green flames. Its leaves are wider, softer, and more gracefully curved than many agaves, with fine teeth along the edges. Faster growing and larger than 'Blue Glow', it makes a bold, sculptural statement in the landscape, perfect for adding movement and cool color to slopes, large beds, or as a standalone specimen.
