Agave Plant Profile and Growing Hints

Agave are an increasingly popular ornamental plant. Agave attenuata and Agave americana are used extensively by landscapers in courtyard situations both in the ground and in pots. A well drained soil best suits agave and a feed of slow release fertilizer four time a year is benificial to growth. Agaves suit the modern courtyard look, with strong structural lines, they can look great in terracotta style pots. With over 200 species including variegated forms the choice is wide.
