Agave attenuata Foxtail Agave (Fox tail) 11" Wide #111P

The Fox Tail Agave is a gentle species with a graceful appearance that is popular for its easy nature and smooth, pliable, pale green leaves free from menacing teeth or claws.

Agave attenuata is a frost-tender, elegant agave with large rosettes and an unusual, trunk-forming stem. This moderately-fast growing agave freely produces offsets creating colonies up to 10 feet wide. Each individual rosette may grow 4 ft. wide and has 15 to 35 leaves that are apple-green or grey-green, soft, slightly curved, and wider in the middle. The smooth, light grey, bare stem is distinctive and varies in length from 1.5 to 5 ft. from the base.
