Agave ovatifolia ‘Frosty Blue’

Family: Asparagaceae
Common Name: Frosty Blue Whale’s Tongue Agave
Origin: Northeastern Mexico (cultivar selection of Agave ovatifolia)

Description:

‘Frosty Blue’ is a dazzling selection of the famed Whale’s Tongue Agave, prized for its striking powdery-blue foliage and clean, architectural symmetry. The broad, cupped leaves form a rounded, open rosette that can reach up to 5 feet wide and 3–4 feet tall.

This cultivar’s glaucous, silvery-blue hue gives it a cool, modern look that works beautifully in contemporary and drought-tolerant landscapes. Unlike many Agaves, it typically does not produce offsets, making it a tidy specimen choice.
