VARIEGATED CENTURY PLANT

Agave americana
Variegated Century Plant
_
  • 4-6 feet tall, 4-6 feet wide
  • Large green leaves with sharp yellow borders
  • Full sun and little to no water required
  • Similar traits of non-variegated variety

The largest of the Agave species, the Agave Americana, commonly called the Century Plant, grows long, pointed green leaves appearing to stem straight from the ground. The Century Plant grows at a fast rate (comparative to other cacti) establishing thick leaves in a heavy "pup" cluster that can reach out up to 3 feet from the base. 

The "variegated" variety of Century Plant is similar in most respects to the non-variegated, aside from the notable difference in leaf color. Variegated Century Plants boast a lighter, fleshier green leaf with a creamy white to yellow marginal variegation that gives this Agave Americana a highly unique and desirable appearance.

As with all of our cacti, due to extremely high demand, we may have a limited quantity available. Please call your nearest location at 938-602-MOON (6666) for availability before arriving , as we do not carry cacti at all locations. Remember...cacti are sharp, so save your fingers and have us do the planting
