Agave verschaffeltii, Lem. Lvs. obovate-oblong, acuminate, 3 x 6-8 in., glaucous, with flexuous or twisted, flat-grooved, red-brown
spine and long rusty teeth on large fleshy prominences: infl. rather slight and sparse; fls. about 2 1/4 in.; ovary 1 1/4 in., segm. 1/2 in., tube 3/4 in.: caps, oblong, very stoutly stipitate, beaked. S. Mex. Ref. Bot. 306. 328. Lyon Hort. 1880, 267. Gt. 346. 3. Verschaf., Cat. 1866-7, 1869. f. I. H. 15: 564.—Extremely variable, the original introducer announcing "as many varieties as there are plants," and 33 named forms having been catalogued once in the Lyon garden. The more distinct, which have received
mostly descriptive specific names, are var. crenata (amaena, cochleata, elegans), var. cucullata (Croucheri, Simsii), var. Leopoldii, var. pulverulenta, var. quadrata, var. Saundersii (virginica glauca), etc., and such minor forms as albida, auricantha, compacta, lanceolata, orbicularis, ovalifolia, rhomboidea, rotundifolia and streptacdatha. A. tehuacanensis, Karw., is the earliest published name for the species but no description was given. A. Bonnetii, Hort., seems to be this, but A. Bonncliana, Hort., is referred to A. mitraeformis, which accompanies A. Verschaffeltii about Tehuacan.—Extensively tried in hybridization, and crosses are reported with A. attenuata (X A. Guignardiii, A. densiflora, A. micracantha or micrantha, A. schidigera, A. Tonelliana or Tonneliana or heteracantha Tonneliana, A. Vanderwinii, or Vanderwinneni (x A. Simonii x A. grandibracteata) and A. xylonacantha or xylinacantha.
