Agave Blue Waves

OVERVIEW:

Agave hybr. ‘Blue Waves’ is a variety we proudly grow from cultivars provided by our partners at Rancho Soledad. An attractive hybrid specimen that was designed to tolerate the extreme climate of the Sonoran Desert, it’s defined leaf imprints and silvery-blue coloring give the illusion of waves in a distant, northern sea.
