Agave geminiflora

A single, short-stemmed plant that forms dense,
symmetrical rosettes of narrow, dark green leaves.

Uses:	Ideal for rockeries and general landscaping and looks fantastic in a decorative pot. It is a great resource for sunny, hot spots.
Flowers:	The flower stalk is a narrow spike 15 - 18 feet tall. The name geminiflora is derived from the fact that there are two flowers at each bract along the spike. The flowers are greenish near the base, flushed with red or purple above.
Growth Habit:	A single, short-stemmed plant that forms dense, symmetrical rosettes of narrow, dark green leaves. The long, skinny leaves measure 60cm long and 5mm across. They are toothless along the margin, however, they may have fine, white marginal fibres.
Growing Guide:	Plant in well drained, rich soil in full sun in a sheltered position. Can withstand long periods of drought, but they will thrive and flower more profusely if watered in the growing season. Protect from heavy frost.
