Agave macroacantha Blue Ribbon Penstemon truly spectacularAgave 'Blue Ribbon' is an elegant selection of Agave macroacantha, which hails from the Mexican state of Puebla, where it forms tight, suckering 1' tall x 18" wide rosettes of blue finger like leaves, each tipped with a wicked terminal black spine.
