We need to add Agave colorata, A. geminiflora, A. multifilifera, A. pelona, A. schidigera and A. subsimplex.
I brought our up-to-date list to the local nursery today for additional input, and the fellow who runs the place would cross two off the list, A. geminiflora, and A. Sharkskin, he has had both react poorly to mid-day sun exposure. Of course, this is at his nursery, so we're talking potted plants, perhaps the difference.
