Agave victoriae reginae Tora Fu Brahea much closer to the groundAgave victoriae reginae 'Tora Fu' is one of several yellow edged selections of the small Mexican century plant Agave victoriae reginae. The 10" tall x 18" wide, slowly offsetting rosette is composed of short, thick, wide, dark green leaves, adorned with silver linear markings as well as a wide, dark yellow border. Excess soil moisture is the enemy, so plant Agave victoriae reginae 'Tora Fu' on a slope where it is protected from winter rains.
