Agave filifera
7th April 2008
This is another one of the species that is surprisingly hardy. I have a number of plants grown
from seed from a variety of sources, and I have never done any more than keep the winter wet off them under cover, but they have prospered.
This snow only lay on the leaves for a few hours, but it did no damage to them.

Originally sown in 1993, this is one of the plants growing in the Agave house where I have used groups of them to create a 'landscape' effect,
and I am sure that they will eventually.
