Century Plant is a bold, sculptural agave that forms a large rosette of thick, pointed leaves. Its dramatic shape makes it a strong focal point for sunny South Florida landscapes, spacious beds, and large containers.
Light: Grow in full sun for the strongest form. It also tolerates part sun or light afternoon shade.
Soil: Plant in fast-draining soil. Sandy soil, raised beds, or a gritty container mix help prevent water from collecting around the roots.
Water: Water regularly while establishing, then allow the soil to dry between waterings. Once established, it is highly drought tolerant.
Placement: This 7-gallon plant needs room to mature. Keep it away from narrow walkways, play areas, and seating because the leaf tips and margins can be sharp. Mature plants may produce offsets that can be separated and replanted.
