Product Description

Agave purpusorum is a compact, ground-hugging succulent known for its broad, triangular leaves in rich shades of olive green, purple, or reddish-brown, often mottled with subtle patterns. The leaves are edged with small teeth and finished with a sharp dark terminal spine, forming a low, dense rosette. Native to Oaxaca and Puebla, Mexico, this slow-growing species is highly sought after for its unique coloration, geometric form, and bold ornamental value in containers or rock gardens.
