Agave titanota (oteroi) Red Catweasle

Description

Agave titanota (oteroi) Red Catweasle is an exciting new addition and – what a name!  There is a little dispute about nomenclature and even one theory that this fabulous variety is to do with a 70’s punk rock band called ‘Catweazle’ and a song called ‘Seeing Red’…who knows!  All we know is – we like it!

Agave titanota (oteroi) Red Catweasle forms a bold and dense rosette of fleshy green-glaucous leaves with bold spint margins in shades of pale beige-cream.  Usually forming a single rosette and and more compact variety, this is an excellent contender for container growing.  Plant in very free draininng soil and place in a sunny warm position.  Protect from freezing and soggy conditions over the winter months.  Rare and beautiful!
