Agave oteroi ‘Tower of Babel’
$44.99
Description
Tower of Babel Agave (Agave oteroi) is a curious agave that has a tight rosette of green leaves with large pale teeth along a brown margin at the tip of an ever-elongating stem that retains its lower leaves. Grows upright at first but lays over under its own weight unless staked. We have had this curious plant for over 10 years and never seen it bloom but find its leaves and growth form strangely attractive. The elongated stems with leaves make it look a bit more like a large vicious Haworthia or Astroloba than it does an agave. Though originally associated with Agave parrasana, neither the parent or our plants appear to be from this species and looks to be more akin to the Agave titanota form usually called FO-076 for the Felipe otero collection that was described as Agave oteroi by Greg Starr and Tristan Davis in the Summer 2019 issue of Cactus and Succulent Journal (Vol. 91 N. 2). This plant has also been called Agave titanota ‘Tower’ and A. titanota ‘Tower of Babel’.
