‘Silver Surfer’ is a medium-sized Agave with thick, silver-blue leaves that grow straight up from the base of the plant. Grows as a single rosette and is very slow to produce offsets or flower. Due to its sharp teeth and terminal spines, it should be planted where it will be out of reach of people and pets. Prefers full sun inland. Plant in very well-draining, even gravelly soil. Water infrequently to not at all once established. Susceptible to fungus if overwatered or planted in slow-draining soil.
