Agave schottii Cochise Stronghold form Yellow/Gold Flowering Plants topped with dark purple spikesThis rarely offered, rock garden sized Sonoran desert native forms small, 1' tall rosettes of 16" long x 1 2" wide nearly cylindrical green leaves often highlighted with a white central marking. Each leaf ends with a sharp (I bet I didn't have to tell you) terminal spine. The rosettes offset quickly, forming a tight colony. When mature, each rosette will produce an 8' tall flowering spike! Agave schottii is particularly sensitive to winter moisture
