Agave parryi ssp truncata Green Roofs but paternity tests revealed it

but paternity tests revealed it to be a selection of the Eurasian (Greece and Turkey) Amsonia orientalis

but also grows well in all but the driest of woodland garden sites

Thanks to SC plantsman

This slow but easy-to-grow hosta is topped with nice stalks of white flowers that attract hummingbirds in early summer

Our plant was shared by Alabama nurseryman

Agave parryi ssp truncata Green Roofs but paternity tests revealed itAgave parryi ssp. truncata, considered one of the most beautiful of all the agaves, has a very limited native distribution.
