Description
Agave is a succulent. It make great feature plants and can be grown in the ground or in containers. They are very low maintenance and hardwearing plants. Their stiff leaves form large rosettes that may be up to 1m across. Most have spiky margins although the popular, fast-growing A. attenuata has smooth grey-green leaves. Flower spikes of agaves emerge from the centre of the plant, often reaching several metres high.
