A stunning new hybrid combining exceptional beauty, outstanding durability, and year-round landscape appeal.
Rancho Tissue Technologies is excited to announce the release of **Agave ‘Frosty Crystals’**, a remarkable new ornamental agave hybrid created from *Agave isthmensis* × *Agave parrasana*. This outstanding introduction brings together the finest qualities of both species to create a truly exceptional landscape plant.
Named for its beautiful frosted appearance, **’Frosty Crystals’** develops into a compact, perfectly symmetrical rosette of thick, sculptured leaves with an eye-catching silvery-blue color that seems to sparkle in the sunlight. Its bold architectural form makes it an outstanding focal point in gardens, containers, rock gardens, succulent collections, and modern landscape designs.
Beyond its striking beauty, **’Frosty Crystals’** has been selected for its outstanding garden performance. It is **cold hardy to approximately 25°F (-4°C)** and thrives in full sun, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of climates. Once established, it is highly drought tolerant and requires very little maintenance, providing year-round color and structure in water-wise landscapes.
Every plant is produced in the Rancho Tissue Technologies laboratory using advanced tissue culture techniques, ensuring exceptional uniformity, cleanliness, and consistent quality. Growers receive vigorous, true-to-type plants ready for dependable greenhouse production and outstanding landscape performance.
