Why We Love Agave
Agaves are a favorite choice for structured desert-inspired designs. Their dramatic rosettes, blue-green tones and strong silhouettes bring visual interest throughout the year.
Planting Agave
Provide gritty, freely draining soil, especially in winter. Leave room around the rosette for mature spread and leaf tips.
Garden Uses & Landscaping Inspiration
Drought-conscious landscapes, containers, striking focal points. Bring them together with carefully chosen companions that have compatible sunlight, drainage and watering needs. Actual suitability depends on the selected species, site conditions and weather.
Care & Maintenance
Tolerance varies widely between species. Agave americana, Agave parryi and Queen Victoria agave should not be assumed to have identical cold limits.
