It is extremely ornamental with small blue-green, symmetrical rosettes and long, harmless terminal grass-like spines. Slowly growing up to 15-30 cm tall, 25-30(-60) cm spread. This is the smallest and most cold hardy variety of A. hutaensis. In contrast to other subspecies it has broader, bluish green leaves with strong marginal teeth, It suckers slowly and the suckers tend to be adhered to the mother plant, eventually forming a large matt of spines where you can't tell which leaf belongs to which plant.
Leaves: 15–25 long and 1,5–3 cm wide, pale blue-green, linear-laceolate, straight or falcate, spiked, stiff, convex below, plane or concave above, ending in a soft, grass-like spine whitish to brown, slender, 4–8 cm long (split usually). The leaves have heavily toothed margins, the teeth are prominent 4–6 mm long (not very sharp, though).
Flowers: Light yellow, bulbous flower clusters arise along the stem on short 2-2,5 stalks. The rosette dies after flowering. The inflorescence varies in style from plant to pant. It may be a spike, a raceme, or a panicle 2–4 metres.
Blooming season: Late winter early summer.
Fruit: Capsules 2-3cm long.
Seeds: Black
