Agave montana villarreal

국표에 없다.

The mountain agave, Agave montana, is a beautiful and architectural plant, forming a huge solitary rosette of densely packed, spined, deep-green leaves with a white powdery patina. Native to the mountainous regions of Mexico, it’s exposed to cool moist cloud and more of a temperate climate than other agaves are used to. It’s therefore better suited to the British climate than some of its less hardy cousins, and has even been known to survive harsh British winters outside, without any protection. 

For best results grow Agave montana in well-drained soil in full sun, and water sparingly. Despite being hardier than most agaves (down to -10°C), it is a good idea to give it protection in winter. Bring plants indoors in autumn or protect with fleece.

This agave was named for its native range in the mountains of northeastern Mexico, at elevations of up to 9,000 feet, making it quite cold hardy. It is a medium sized agave, sporting armed, bright green leaves with large, reddish teeth and terminal spine. Imprints of the serrated teeth show on sister leaves, adding visual interest. This agave does well in full sun to light shade and is known to tolerate poor, impoverished soils. Like most agaves, the Mountain Agave needs no supplemental water once it is established. Plant this toothed beauty away from walkways.
