Agave parryspina Manfreda a favorite of early foragingAgave x parryspina is an exciting cross of two North American century plant species, Agave parryi and Agave flexispina. We haven't seen mature plants, but expect it to form 2' tall x 3' wide blue leaved rosettes. In our garden trials, it prefers a very dry, well drained site.
