Agave parviflora - Santa Cruz co., AZ

Agave parviflora ssp. parviflora lives up to its name having small flowers and small stems and small growth. Lets just say its one of the smallest Century Plants. This is one of our favorite plants and extremely cold hardy. These have taken -17F and negative teens several times. Plants in the wild get about 6" across and are probably ancient like half a century old at blooming size. In the garden we have seen they get a little larger around 8". These are very rare in the trade and in the wild and is listed as a federally endangered species. These are all seed grown and seed came from cultivated plants.
 
We share our experiences to help with your own trials of cold hardiness. We do not guarantee these plants in any garden or zone. Every garden is different and everyones growing conditions are different. Please try plants at your own risk, I do not want to be misleading to anyone.
