Agave havardiana
Agave havardiana is a special native plant found only in the beautiful Glass Mountains of west Texas. It features a charming single rosette that generally spans 3-4 feet wide, showcasing thick, spiny leaves in a lovely glaucous blue color, which can grow up to 20 inches long and 6 inches wide. This resilient plant is wonderfully adapted to thrive in chilly conditions, remaining safe from winter moisture even in temperatures below 20 degrees F. When summer arrives, mature Agave havardiana dazzles with impressive flower spikes reaching up to 12 feet tall, looking like asparagus and adorned with cheerful clusters of vibrant yellow flowers that attract a delightful array of pollinators.

Spring Shipping:
Orders are shipped within 7-10 business days. We will email you if there are expected delays.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
