Agave isthmensis Kabuto Gani Lilium and great as a groundcoverAgave 'Kabuto Gani' is a superb, compact form of the Mexican Agave isthmensis that matures at 12" tall x 12" wide. The thick, deeply scalloped leaves are blue with a wide creamy border a stunning container specimen! This is also the only agave we've ever grown that doesn't die or degrade after flowering. Our plants that flowered 2 years ago, still look the same as they did prior to flowering.
