Field Notes

Description:

Agaves are originally from North America, the Southern states of USA and Mexico.
They are monocarpic, they flower once in their lifetime and then die, however they do set seed and even put out offshoots to form clumps, so propagation and ongoing display of foliage is not a problem.
