Product Description

Agave stricta var. echinus seeds are small, flat, and teardrop-shaped with a lustrous black surface and sharp, clean edges. These glossy, jet-black seeds exhibit a papery texture and slightly irregular form, typical of Agave species. Known for producing the dense, spherical rosettes of the Hedgehog Agave, the seeds of Agave stricta var. echinus hold the potential for uniquely spiny, ornamental growth. These distinctive Hedgehog Agave seeds are prized for their purity, uniformity, and botanical rarity in cultivation.
