Thanks in advance for taking a look at this. I've found photos and seen these nice plants in the field. I would like to buy my own but I don't know enough to ID them for a nursery or even the folks that help me with landscape. So, my goal is to get an actionable identifier so I can go find these on the open market (here in SF Bay area).
I think (def. not sure) that it may be a cross between agave attenuata and ggave shawii called 'blue flame'. However, following that notion, I found that even w/in the blue flame category there are a lot of variations. For instance, looking here I see 7:

Sadly, none of those obviously matched my target (though the photos are small and from a specific angle and one thing I notice about my 2nd two photos is that you can't always see the waviness in the leaves from right up close).
Anyway, if you have any ideas, thanks in advance. I can link to higher res. version of the images if that helps.
