Well Mughal! I can tell you that are "must have" kind of Agaves.

[gemhunter178]

Nice Agaves! I like the "teeth" on them!

[mughal113]

gemhunter178, here are a few more "toothy" ones..

1. Agave titanota - black spines



2. 1. Agave titanota - white spines



3. Agave xylonacantha



4. Agave prasana



5. Agave neomexicana

[gemhunter178]

Nice! As long as they don't get "toothaches"!

[mughal113]

Agave guiengola. So beautiful, yet so fragile. I just cant keep the leaves from breaking.

The classic plain, non suckering one - and by far my favorite


Creme brulee


Medio picta, the smallest and slowest one

you have some nice Agaves Mughal. I don't have that many, but Ron (German Star) has given me a few. They are doing well this year.

The teeth are beautiful as are the margin spines. (the spines at the tips). Nice plants, good growing

[GermanStar]

Very nice! In regard to the OP:

A. titanota = A. FO-076 (real A. titanota is blue)
A. potatorum 'Kichijokan' = A. isthmensis 'Kichijokan' (real A. potatorum is a larger, solitary plant)
A. patonii = A. applanata

Also, the true id of 'Confederate Rose" is unknown, but it is not A. potatorum. Probably best to just call it A. 'Confederate Rose'.

[mughal113]

Thanks for the very useful information Ron. I'm actually looking for a real Agave titanota.

Agave potatorum "confederate rose" was actually identified as Agave guadalajarana cv. minor by a friend of mine. A bit confusing.
Yes, A.patonii = A. applanta

Thanks Peter. Hope they go good through the winters

[GermanStar]

A. 'Confederate Rose' is definitely not A. guadalajarana, another much larger, solitary Agave.

[Peterthecactusguy]

Mughal, they should be fine

And as for anything to do with Agaves Ron is almost always right, I'm just a novice

[mughal113]

Yes, no doubt about that..
Here are a few more

1. Agave victoriae-reginae x asperrima


2. Agave parviflora


3. A. potatorum "verschaffeltii" - short form


4. Agave palmeri var chrysantha

[gemhunter178]
