Re: Star agave freeze damage


No no no! Don't cut anything back! The core might still be alive but if you cut it back now, and it freezes again, you'll lose the core for sure. Just leave it until well into spring. My agaves (which are the star agave?) resprout after freezing but it takes some time and warmth.

It went down to 29 during the recent cold snap here in Glendale, CA. I have a very old and large colony of star agave that suffered. Most of the leaves are wilted and are now turning yellow. Is there hope for them? Should I cut back the dying stuff?

Help!
