Agave americana (Century Plant)
Bring bold character to your garden with the Agave americana, a striking succulent native to Mexico. Known as the Century Plant, this perennial evergreen forms large, open rosettes of dramatic leaves that make it a favorite in modern landscapes.
Highly adaptable and drought-tolerant, Agave americana thrives in desert, subtropical, Mediterranean, tropical, and temperate climates. It is hardy enough for exposed courtyards and balconies, yet also perfect for container growing in smaller spaces.
This architectural plant is ideal for rock gardens, accent planting, and ornamental displays, adding structure and drama to any setting. While the parent plant dies after blooming, new offsets (pups) continue its growth cycle, ensuring longevity in your collection.
