Agave Ceslii Gallery.
This agave celsii was bought as a seedling in about 2003. Since 2011 it has been outside in all weathers and the only protection has
been some horticultural fleece topped off with an old bed sheet when the thermometer was forecast to drop below freezing. It was however close to a south facing wall.
It has never offset and is probably pot bound too. The first indication that something was changing with this plant was reduction in size of the new leaves.
