Agave montana (Mountain Agave)

130 (200)cm ø, Mountain Agave is called the queen of winter hardy century plants and was only discovered some 10 years ago and is still a rarity in cultivation. It makes showy, very large, solitary rosettes of dark green, strongly toothed leaves and an impressively tall inflorescence reaching up to 4m in height. In comparison to the related Agave gentryi it has much broader leaves in a very dense rosette. It is native of northeastern Mexico where it occurs in mountain forests receiving moisture throughout the year.
