Agave parryi J C Raulston Leonotis Herbertia lahue forms a miniature

Herbertia lahue forms a miniature clump of narrow foliage to only 2" tall

Because Pink Frost lenten rose is sterile

but there are a few populations where the foliage tends toward blue

Yet it is still strongly advised that this now year-old foliage be removed before new growth is produced

Agave parryi J C Raulston Leonotis Herbertia lahue forms a miniatureWe've grown Agave parryi from all along its native range, but the best clone is still the one growing at the JC Raulston Arboretum in NC. We tracked this clone back to a plant that originated from J. C.'s 1979 trip to California's Strybing Arboretum. Strybing obtained their plant from California professor Jack Napton in 1971. This special clone forms large symmetrical 2' tall x 3' wide rosettes that seem particularly well adapted to winters in wet,
