The Fox Tail Agave is an elegant and beautiful succulent that, due to its particular shape and green color, will work wonders in a garden or in a patio in pot. Near the pool it provides a very tropical touch!
Succulent plant that can reach up to 1 m, this Agave is the only one of the genus that forms a trunk although short. Its leaves are glaucous green, without thorns. The greenish yellow flowers are grouped in an inflorescence that reaches 3 m. of height that then hangs in a very particular way. The plant blooms only once in its life and then dies.
It is planted in parks and gardens. It is a spectacular plant planted in rockery. It is recommended to use a cactus substrate for cultivation.
