Agave

The Century Plant, also known as Agave Americana, is a succulent plant that belongs to the Agavaceae family. It is native to Mexico and the southwestern United States, but it is now widely cultivated in many parts of the world. The plant is characterized by its large, fleshy leaves that grow in a rosette pattern and can reach up to 2 meters in length. The leaves are thick and spiky, with sharp teeth along the edges, making it a popular choice for security hedges.

The Century Plant is a slow-growing plant that can take up to 10 years to mature and produce a tall flower spike that can reach up to 8 meters in height. The flower spike is covered in small, yellow-green flowers that bloom in the summer months and attract a variety of pollinators, including bees and hummingbirds. The plant is drought-tolerant and can survive in a range of soil types, but it prefers well-draining soil.
