White Striped Century Plant is a rare selection of agave that forms a medium sized rosette of white leaves edged in blue. Adding bold color to the waterwise landscape, it requires little to no water once established. Armed with both marginal and terminal spines, it is a good choice as a specimen or accent and should be planted away from high traffic pathways. Preferring excellent drainage, it will not tolerate damp conditions. Like almost all agaves, it is monocarpic and blooms only at the end of its life cycle. Throughout its life prior to flowering, it will create new offsets which are referred to as “pups.” These will grow to replace it when it is gone. Cold hardy to 15-20F.
