Agave americana var. medio-picta 'Alba' (White Striped Century Plant) is a slow-growing, succulent plant known for its large, rosette-forming leaves with white stripes. The leaves are stiff and fleshy, with sharp tips and teeth along the margins, and they can grow up to 4-6 feet long and 2-3 feet wide. The leaves are a glossy green color with white stripes that run along the length of the leaf, creating a striking contrast. White Striped Century Plant is a cultivar of the popular Agave americana and is often used for ornamental purposes. The plant produces a tall, spike-like stalk that can reach up to 20 feet tall and is topped with a large inflorescence of yellow or yellow-green flowers. Once the plant has flowered, it will die, but it will often produce offsets or "pups" that can be propagated to form new plants. Agave americana var. medio-picta 'Alba' is a popular choice for xeriscape gardens, rock gardens, and succulent gardens. It is drought-tolerant and requires well-draining soil, making it a low-maintenance plant for hot, dry climates. With its unique, variegated leaves and striking appearance, White Striped Century Plant is a standout in any garden.
