Quadricolor Century Plant

The Quadricolor Agave is a stunning, medium-sized succulent native to Mexico, renowned for its striking foliage and ornamental value. This agave features wide, symmetrical rosettes of thick, sword-shaped leaves that showcase a beautiful mix of colors, with vibrant green centers, creamy white edges, and subtle red markings along the leaf margins. The leaves also have sharp spines, dramatically contrasting the plant's overall appearance. Over time, the Quadricolor Agave can grow up to 2–3 feet in height and width, making it a perfect centerpiece for garden beds and container plantings. In late spring or early summer, it sends up a tall, slender flower stalk that can reach up to 10 feet, topped with clusters of tubular yellow flowers. This drought-tolerant agave thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, ideal for xeriscaping, desert gardens, and low-maintenance landscapes. Its unique color pattern and striking shape make it a favorite among succulent enthusiasts and landscape designers.
