Agave x 'Blue Emperor'

Agave x 'Blue Ember' ‘Blue Emperor’ is a bold, regal hybrid agave with sculptural presence and brilliant color contrast. This compact form features upright, lance-shaped leaves in a luminous steel-blue hue, each tipped with a dramatic black spine that sharpens the plant’s form and elegance. At 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide, it brings dramatic vertical structure without overwhelming a space. Cold-hardy and heat-tolerant, ‘Blue Emperor’ is perfectly suited for water-wise landscapes in a range of climates—from low desert to temperate gardens.
