Agave parrasana Globe Chrysogonum 5' tall x 6' wideAgave parrasana 'Globe' is a stunning Kelly Griffin selection of the hard to find Mexican Agave parrasana, a species found only in a small region (up to 8,000' elevation in Coahuila, Mexico). Agave parrasana 'Globe' is an extremely compact globe shaped, sparsely offsetting, 2' tall x 2' wide selection with great form and great bud imprints on the powder blue leaf backs. Dry soil in winter months is key to survival in colder zones.
