Agave victoriae‑reginae, nicknamed the Queen Victoria Agave, is celebrated for its perfectly symmetrical rosette of dark‑green leaves intricately edged with crisp white markings and finished with a tiny black spine. Discovered in the rugged mountains of Coahuila, Mexico, this species quickly became a collector’s jewel and was named in honor of Britain’s Queen Victoria in the late 19th century. Its compact size, exceptional drought and cold tolerance, and jewel‑like appearance make it a dazzling focal point in rock gardens, containers, and modern xeriscapes. Slow to grow yet stunning for decades, the Queen Victoria Agave embodies elegance and endurance in any water‑wise planting.

MicroStarts' Queen Victoria agaves are available in starter plant 4 packs.
