Plantae
Monocots (Monocotyledons)
Asparagales
Family: Asparagus family
Asparagaceae (was Agavaceae)


It is monocarpic I think - will die after flowering - and it took a long time from seed to flower.

Agave schottii was written on the label and presumably I got this from the seed packet (source forgotten) but it isn't I am fairly sure. Best guess is A. parviflora.
