Highlights
Furcraea macdougallii (Matuda): A large growing rosette, similar to many Agave. Its sea blue leaves have small spikes along the margins that become more formidable with age. This plant is a tree and, with proper care, can reach heights of up to 20' tall.
Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need bright sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
This variety is easy to re-root from offsets. Look to our Succulent Cuttings Guide for tips on succulent propagation.
