Agave ovatifolia
Agave ovatifolia is solitary growing and makes no offsets; after many years it will flower and die. It grows a hemispherical rosette, which will reach in nature about 80 cm tall and 120 cm wide, but in cultivation plants are known that reached a length of 150 cm and became 200 cm wide. The silver-blue to greyish-blue leaves are short and broad and distinctively cupped. The marginal teeth along the leaves are small and in general curved towards the base. The leaf ends in a 1-2 cm long dark spine. Agave ovatifolia is also called 'Whale's Tongue' as a result of the short, wide, distinctively cupped leaf blade and groove on the upper surface of the blade. Agave ovatifolia is found in a isolated mountain top in Sierra de Lampazos in the Mexican state of Nuevo Leon. It occurs at elevations from 1200-2100 mtr. Frost resistant till -12°C.
