Arguably 1 of the most beautiful agaves, it features leaves with graceful, undulating edges lined with a wide cream-white stripe, which contrasts with the soft gray-green of the leaf’s interior. In addition to being beautiful, Ivory Curls Agave is remarkably easy to grow. It needs very little water, loves direct sunlight that many plants cannot endure, can handle cold right down to 32F, and doesn’t even need fertilizer.
