Agave parryi var. truncata, commonly known as Artichoke Agave or Truncata Agave, is a compact, ornamental succulent prized for its symmetry and icy blue-gray foliage. Native to northern Mexico and the American Southwest, its broad, truncated leaves form a tight, geometric rosette that adds bold structure to any landscape. Exceptionally cold-hardy and drought-tolerant, it performs beautifully in both high desert and milder climates. Ideal for collectors and water-wise gardeners, Artichoke Agave delivers striking form and effortless, low-maintenance appeal.
Each live plant in this 4-pack ships in a 4-inch nursery pot and thrives with minimal care. Place them in full sun to partial shade, water sparingly, and allow the soil to dry between waterings. If kept in a pot, use well-draining cactus or succulent soil for best results. MicroStarts drought tolerant plants thrive in xeriscapes, rock gardens, and low-maintenance landscapes.
