Agave ocahui in bloom

Recommended Posts

I believe this is Agave ocahui which I got about a decade ago at Rancho Soledad.  It's blooming and I'm curious if anyone knows if these normally produce offset pups, or seed propagation is the best option?  I do have other Agave's nearby so depending on how easily they hybridize, I might not be certain of seed.

I’m sure if you have pollen from other agave, you could produce some interesting hybrids. Agave “Blue Glow” is Ocahui x Attenuata

Off to the side in one of the photos is Agave "Blue Glow" (I've cropped that portion of the photo below).  It flowered quite a while back and you can see pups on the inflorescence in the background.  Timing was off for that one, but there is a second "Blue Glow" in the front yard which may have overlapped in flowering.
