Description

Agave with open rosette grows quickly to 4' x 5'. Arching twisted leaves give it its name. Leaves are light green with smooth margins and soft terminal spines. Good for high traffic areas. Accepts full sun or partial shade. Somewhat cold sensitive. After many years flower stalk will appear with yellow flowers in the spring. Like most agaves it will die after flowering, but it does produce many bulbils that can be transplanted. Does best with some shade in the low desert. Native to Mexico.
