AGAVE SEEDS

The Agave genus, a striking member of the Asparagaceae family, is renowned for its architectural rosettes of thick, spiny-edged leaves. Known commonly as Century Plants, Agave is admired for its dramatic form and adaptability to arid climates. These succulent plants are often found in hues of green, blue-gray, or variegated patterns, adding bold texture to landscapes.

Native to the hot and dry regions of the Americas, Agave thrives in well-drained, sandy soils under full sun. They are exceptionally drought-tolerant, requiring minimal maintenance once established. While most species are monocarpic—blooming only once after several years before dying—their towering flower spikes are a spectacular sight. Species such as Agave americana, commonly known as the Century Plant, are particularly popular in ornamental and xeriscape gardens.

The Agave genus is more than just ornamental. Historically significant, these plants have been cultivated for centuries for their fibres, sweet sap, and cultural importance. Combining resilience, functionality, and beauty, Agave remains an iconic genus in both natural and cultivated landscapes.
