Tiny black spots on Agave

#1

Post by TruxCaper »

This Agave looks healthy on the whole, and it's growing quite rapidly in fact, yet there are these black spots on the leaves which I can't make sense of. They've been there since last summer at least, and they haven't grown in size since then, but I can't figure out if they're slowly multiplying and appearing on newer leaves as well. Should I worry?
P.S.: Could anyone help me ID this agave? I was told it might be A. garciae-mendozae, but I'm not entirely sure. Thanks for the help! :))
