Product Details
Highlights
Agave americana f. mediopicta 'Aurea': A hauntingly beautiful combination of sun yellow and ocean blue. Each leaf also features coppery red spines on its margins and tip. It will slowly offset, once mature, into a neat clump of striped leaves.
Agave need plenty of full, outdoor sunlight and great drainage to thrive. They do well in gritty, mineral soils and pots with drainage holes. Over time you'll see new offsets or "pups" sprout up within the leaves of the mother plant.
Agave grow slowly in the spring and summer and can tolerate high heat and extended drought. This variety is not frost hardy and needs protection from heavy rains and standing water to prevent rot.
