agave heteracantha x celsii

Description.

One of my own hybrids that was produced by applying agave celsii pollen to agave heteracantha. The pollen was collected from my celsii in 2016 and preserved by drying and freezing. The pollen was then thawed out in 2020, rehydrated and applied to heteracantha.
