Agave sebastiana - 1ga

Agave sebastiana 'Silver Lining', or Cedros Island Agave, is an evergreen succulent native to islands off the west coast of Baja California, Mexico. This medium-sized plant forms a rosette growing 3 to 5 feet in height and width, characterized by its fleshy, pale gray to gray-green leaves with large, dark spines and a long dark terminal spine. It often forms clusters from base suckers and thrives in full sun to light shade with minimal irrigation, making it suitable for dry, Mediterranean climates. Blooming infrequently, it produces yellow flowers on mature plants after many years. Native to West San Benito, Natividad, and Cedros Islands, it is sometimes considered a subspecies of Agave shawii. Propagated from tissue culture by Jerry Hunter, it is noted for its silver foliage. The plant is hardy to 20°F to 25°F, corresponding to USDA zones 9a to 9b, and can tolerate mild frost. In gardens, it is used ornamentally for its striking contrast and serves as a transitional plant in succulent and drought-tolerant settings.
