The largest Agave in its species, the Agave Americana, commonly called the Century Plant, grows long, pointed blue-green leaves appearing to stem straight from the ground.

The Century Plant grows more quickly (compared to other cacti) and establishes thick leaves in a heavy 'pup' cluster that can reach up to 3 feet from the base. Native to Texas, the Century Plant loves the hot Arizona weather but is also cold-hardy enough to survive our coldest winters. Century Plant tolerates full to partial sun exposure.

Despite its large size and striking appearance, it is relatively low-maintenance and used in xeriscaping and desert gardens.
