Parry's Agave

Parry's Agave has a slower growth rate and displays a pattern of leaves structured as layers of concentric circles. The leaves are spade-shaped with a tipped end, designed to capture and funnel as much water from rainfall as possible to their base. Beyond sheer beauty, these agaves will last many years before flowering, after which they die. Agaves usually live 10 to 30 years before flowering. Most agaves make pups or offshoots that replace the parent plant after it dies.
The smaller size of this Agave allows easy planting around corners, in smaller planters, and in areas where other plants may threaten to over-grow. Native to the Southwestern US and Mexico, Parry's Agave will thrive in your landscape with little care. It's an Agave, so its natural water retention capabilities leave little need for irrigation and constant monitoring, occasional watering will ensure Parry's Agave looks and stays its best.
