Re: Agave angustiarum (Jaumave)
GeeS, I can see that your plant and the photo from Bertus on my website are pretty close. Angustiarum seems quite confusing, every picture labelled angustiarum seems to show quite different plants. Just to prove the point this pic was sent to me by Ernst Wolfing and this angustiarum is different to the two shown above.
