Agave americana (Century Plant) is a slow-growing, succulent plant native to the deserts of Mexico. It is known for its large, rosette-forming leaves that are stiff and fleshy, with sharp tips and teeth along the margins. The leaves are a glossy green color, sometimes with a blue-green cast, and they can grow up to 4-6 feet long and 2-3 feet wide. Century Plant is called "Century Plant" because it was once believed to live for a hundred years before blooming, but in reality, it typically lives for 15-30 years. 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 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.
