Agave Gypsophila

Agave gypsophila, (Gypsum Century Plant), is a small sprawling agave, that forms a single loose rosette of soft, fleshy, leaves that can reach a diameter of up to 2 m. The leaves are easily distinguished, linear, very brittle, grey with small narrowly-spaced teeth along the wavy margins. Young emerging pale gray-green leaves clasp together in a tube-like manner before curving out and down and turning more wavy and greyer in colour, creating an overall fountain-like effect. When the infrequent flowering occurs, the yellow flowers are born on 2-3 m tall panicle.
