Agave isthmensis f. mediopicta-alba, a stunning and rare miniature variety, also known as 'White-Centered Thunder Queen' or ‘Variegated Dwarf Butterfly,’ will reach a mature size of only 4 inches across. The leaves, which often sport natural growth scarring near the tips, are a rich blue-green with cream variegation, in a pattern resembling paints that have been gently swirled together. What it lacks in size this succulent more than makes up for in visual drama, and it is sure to make a great focal point in any succulent collection.

Despite its rarity, it is not a difficult plant to care for. Bright sunlight, porous soil, and a well-draining pot are the key requirements for success with this variety, as is thorough but infrequent watering. Further, it is important to protect this variety from frost during the winter months, as it is not cold hardy below freezing.

Adding to the uniqueness of the plant is the fact that it produces pups from its leaf axils rather than from underground runners, giving the appearance that the pups are emerging from within the parent plant itself!

    All plants are shipped bare-root with the exception of House Plants and Plant Club Subscription Boxes.

We ship within the USA and its outlying territories ONLY. Read our full policy here.

    Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
