Agave americana 'medio picta'

From: £59.99 - £89.99

Agave americana ‘medio-picta' Alba (White-Striped Century Plant)  is a medium sized, very attractive, century plant that grows (in ideal conditions) to 3 to 4 feet tall by 4 to 6 feet wide with a bold greenish cream central stripe and blue green margins. As with the species there are recurved spines on the margins and a long terminal spine. It doesn't bloom until it is a decade or so old (not a century!) and the plant dies after flowering.  There are two types – the ‘Alba’ with the white stripe and the ‘Aurea’ with a gold stripe. Synonyms are American aloe or Maguey.

Plant in full sun. Irrigate occasionally to not at all. Cold hardy to 15 degrees F. This is a large dramatic plant, give it plenty of room. Use extreme care when working around or trimming any Agave. Not only are the spines wicked and cause a painful swelling if one is poked, but the sap of many species is caustic.
