This tough and hardy agave is found naturally in the rocky slopes and hillsides of Sonora, Mexico. It’s often used anywhere designers want to make a statement with a reliable, medium-sized agave. The extremely cold and drought tolerant colorata forms a stunning solitary rosette that can grow up to 4 feet in diameter, with leaves ranging from 18 to 24 inches in length. The rosette is densely packed with blue-gray to silvery-blue leaves that have a striking powdery coating. The leaves’ edges are adorned with small, sharp teeth, providing a unique textural contrast to the smooth surface of the foliage. At the ends are a stiff, sharp point. Plant en masse for a sea of cool color or nestle between and around warm-colored boulders and bright green grasses for full color impact in your xeriscape garden.
