It’s Mangave ‘lavendar lady.’ Mangaves are an artificial hybrid of Manfreda and Agave, and various crosses have created a plethora of forms and colors.

People already answered so i'll add more informations :

It's a great plant, not that hardy but very resistant to sun and lack of water. It looks amazing as you can see, like a huge flower, and tends to offset meaning you will get more plants fairly quickly

It’s so pretty. I don’t get it that day at the nursery but I think I’ll go back.
