Agave parry subsp. truncata, 1 g pot

Description: About my AgaveIf you look at my listings, you'll see I mostly sell cacti from my collection. However, I'll make a few exceptions to this rule, for the most exceptional Agave and Aloe plants from the ones I grow. (Mind you, I grow about 90 different taxa in these two species, so I do know something about what makes a good plant!) Agave parryi is a classic Agave, the kind you really must have in your collection. There are two varieties commonly grown in my part of California, and this is the short leafed, var. truncata. The leaves are pale green, heavily decorated with white surfacing, excellent imprinting from previous leaves, and nice black marginal and terminal spines. It is a truly beautiful plant. In my cultivation, it throws several pups a year, so you should stay on top of them, otherwise you could get a mess on your hands. Pups are usually produced fairly far from the plant, so you can remove them easily. This plant grows well in drained soil but also in moderate clay. Pot cultivation is successful, too. My parent plant is about 3 feet (39cm) in diameter, so bear in mind this plant will take some room, in time. It has never flowered for me. The sale plants The sale images showing plants in 1 gallon pots, are the exact plants I am selling. The other image is from the parent plant. All the sale plants are clonally identical, just a slight variation of size.When your order comes in, I'll look at the plants I have and send you the largest of the remaining stock. They're all great specimens (I wouldn't sell them if they weren't), so even if you're buying the last of the lot, you'll be getting a great plant.If, for some reason, you WANT the smallest of the set, tell me and I'll accommodate your desires. The information about the plant’s dimensions and the photographs were all generated when I listed the plant---depending upon date of purchase, the plant may be slightly bigger when you get it. I might end this auction prematurely if it gets too big to ship, or if I have a visitor to my garden who wants it. Cultivation I grow this plant in full sun, and give it my full winter. It gets through these cold nights (which drop to about 20 F, -7 C), just fine. I have never seen pests on it. Plants are treated with a safe contact insecticide just before shipping. As such, this specimen should be considered reasonably pest-free. Note, however, that I grow it outdoors with no pesticides, and suitable pest precautions should be taken in incorporating them into your collection or landscape. The plant is adapted to bright sun in central California. However, shade it lightly for a few weeks after receiving it. I find that this plant is quite easy to grow. Shipping The plant will be shipped bare-root. Please ensure that your shipping address will not expose the boxed plant to extreme conditions. Mailboxes in full sun can become dangerously hot, and I will ship to cold climates at your risk. I will work to make sure the plant is not damaged, but it is possible that a few of the leaves will be slightly cracked if they take poorly to the shipping process. Indeed, the main challenge when selling a plant like this on eBay is the shipping costs. I'll offer this until it gets too big to ship! If the shipping is much less than I estimate, I will refund you the difference. I do not buy plants to quickly turn them around and resell them. I know all the plants I sell---most have resulted from normal propagation of my collection plants. If you have questions about growing them, please do not hesitate to ask. I will provide a short care sheet with the plant, too. I do not ship internationally. If there are problems with the plant when it arrives, please discuss it with me so I can make things right with you (instead of giving my eBay account a bad review). I work to fulfill orders as soon as I can. If you purchase multiple items from me, I will combine shipping charges, but it is a good idea to send me a note so I catch the fact that you have multiple orders from me. As long as you notify me, I will wait until your shopping is complete before shipping. The fastest way to proceed is to pay for all your items, and then when I box everything up I will calculate the new shipping charges, and refund you the difference via PayPal. That way the plant spends less time in a dark box.
