the lowermost ones 8 to 10 mm long, and 5 to 7 mm wide. The inflorescence first branches 2 to 3 times, often in an obpyramidal shape. These branches in turn may be simple (not re-branching) or they may form bifurcate ascending branches. The terminal branches are circinate (coiled on themselves, like the frond of a fern), and in age are ascending. The terminal branches are 2 to 5 cm long, and have 2 to 10 flowers on them. The pedicels are ascending to erect in flower, and become definitively erect in fruit, with the lowermost 3 to 5 mm long, and 1 to 2 mm thick.
464: 330: 318:. The cluster is roughly 10 to 40 cm wide, with 25 to 100 or more rosettes. Each rosette is around 2 to 8 cm in diameter, with 6 to 10 leaves. The rosette leaves are glaucous, shaped oblong to lanceolate, and have a leaf apex shaped acute to acuminate. The leaves are roughly 2 to 5 cm long, 4 to 8 mm wide, and 2 to 3 mm thick, with the base of the leaf 5 to 8 mm wide. The upper sides of the leaves are flat to slightly concave, while the lower side is rounded, while the margins of the leaves are acute. 267: 552: 417: 99: 560: 74: 44: 325:
