Agave guiengola 'Creme Brulee'
Common Name: Agave, Century Plant
This plant was formerly sold in the trade under the name Agave g. ‘Marginata’.
This elegant selection with a soft color palette forms an open rosette of super thick, boat-shaped leaves that lay more flat than upright. The broad, grey-green leaves have 1” wide, butter cream yellow to creamy white margins. Tiny but sharp, dark brown spines line the leaf margins, culminating in a longer terminal spine.
‘Cream Brulee’ produces variegated offsets with very narrow leaves. It typically offsets rather prolifically.
Agaves typically flower only once every 15-25 years and the main crown dies after blooming. At maturity, this variety produces a 5-6’ tall spike with pale yellow flowers.
