MicroStarts' Agave 'Pixie' is the rare, compact form of the sought after Agave 'Blue Glow'. This charming, small succulent features Blue Glow's tight rosette shape, but in a unique, space-saving form. Topping out at barely a foot tall, this petite agave brings style to small gardens, troughs, and modern containers where full‑sized century plants can’t fit. Between it's compact size and distinctive looks, 'Pixie' is standout choice for desert landscapes, patio pots, and water-wise gardens alike, and an excellent addition for rare plant collectors.
