I don’t see why it wouldn’t survive. The center growth is in tact, but you will need to keep water or any moisture out of the center until it hardens off a bit.

I know how ya feel because some tree trimmers were not careful and marked up my San Pedros. They were perfect looking before those darn trimmers came. You won’t even know what happened to your Agave once it all grows out:).

Luckily there was no rain and they just callused over, but still irks me when I look at them;).

Thank you for the reply! It's nice to have some encouragement since this is my first plant in this garden I want to do my best! I guess accidents happen and it's good to hear from people who have experience!
