Conservation status
- Vulnerable (Zizka et al. (2009))
Descriptions
- Smith & Downs (1979)
- Zizka et al. (2002)
Habit
Rosette-forming. Stem 16 to over 25 cm long and 2.5-5 cm in diameter.
Key characteristics
Leaf blades (40-)50-80(-120) cm long, sparsely lepidote (with few scales) to almost glabrous beneath. The latter character makes it easily distinguished from all other species of this Chilean endemic genus. The size of the plant is usually distinctly larger than the other Ochagavea species (Zizka, 2002)
Notes
Seed of this species is banked by the national seed bank of Chile, INIA.
