Mine rotted (too much water) and I haven't been able to find one since then. <br /><br />Will you be in Southern California on your trip? San Marcos Growers, a wholesale grower in Santa Barbara, has it listed on their website: http://www.smgrowers.com/products/plants/plantdisplay.asp?plant_id=3479. They don't sell to the public, but you could find out from them which retail nursery in Southern California might have it.<br /><br />Sorry I can't be of more help.Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-60022469345727041022015-11-25T20:23:20.089-08:002015-11-25T20:23:20.089-08:00I've been following your blog for a while and ...I've been following your blog for a while and I'm wondering if you can suggest any nursery in California where I can buy the Agave attenuata variegata. I'm visiting the US and I can't find this in Portugal where I live but I would love to have one of these beauties.
