Agave, Assorted
Description
Agave plants are known for their striking, architectural form and their rosette of thick, fleshy leaves. They are succulents that store water in their leaves, making them highly drought-tolerant. Agaves are native to hot and arid regions of the Americas, and they vary greatly in size and form, from small, compact varieties to large, imposing specimens.
Suggested Uses
Agaves are excellent for xeriscaping, rock gardens, and as focal points in landscape design. They can also be grown in containers, making them suitable for patios and balconies. Their dramatic form makes them a popular choice for modern and desert-themed gardens.
