Agave parryi var. huachucensis
Huachuca Agave is a compact, rosette-forming succulent from the mountains of southeastern Arizona and nearby Mexico, grown mainly as a drought-tolerant ornamental. Good drainage and full sun are the key to growing it well.
Agave parryi var. huachucensis, synonym Agave huachucensis, is a variety of Agave parryi subsp. parryi. It is commonly known as the Huachuca agave.
"Agave huachucensis Sarg." (the epithet is also spelt huachuaensis) is an error; Charles Sargent referred to Agave huachucensis Baker.
