Agave loferox Gatorade Vietnam start flowering around April 10Agave 'Gatorade' is a 2021 Plant Delights JLBG introduction of a seed strain from a 2017 cross we made using our Agave x loferox 'Hacksaw' (lophantha x pseudoferox), pollinated with Agave x protamericana 'Grey Gator'. Since we don't have any mature plants to measure, we estimate that these should mature quite large in the range of 4 6' tall and 6 8' wide. The foliage should be mostly green with some seedlings showing a central pale yellow stripe. Each
