(Weber's Agave, Weber's Century Plant)
A huge silvery blue agave ideal for large, open gardens where it can achieve its magnificent stature, this succulent evergreen is naturalized in Mexico and Texas but is unknown in the wild. Like sisal (Agave sisalana), it may have originated in ancient Mexico as a cultivated hybrid grown for its fibers. Forming immense rosettes atop short trunks, the long, dagger-shaped, spine-tipped leaves vary in size as well as in the presence of minute marginal teeth. Blue coloring becomes more pronounced...

Vigorous and easy to grow, it performs best in sites with full sun and average soil. Where summers are hot, plants may flower best in part sun locations. Rarely bothered by deer, Blue Hawaii flossflower is best enjoyed in containers or mixed borders with other brightly colored,...

Fluffy, pale violet-blue flowers bedeck the tall stems of the Blue Horizon flossflower when temperatures are warm and growing conditions favorable. Though technically a tender perennial, flossflower is widely grown as an annual bedding plant. It is a hybrid derived from plants native to Mexico and Central America where it grows as an evergreen subshrub with a dense, bushy habit; it can self-sow and is potentially weedy in frost-free regions.
The foliage of 'Blue Horizon' is an attractive jade...

The tall, well-branching, bushy plants have lush, deep green leaves. When temperatures are warm and growing conditions good, they produce big clusters of button-like flowers on tall stems with sturdiness; plants...
