Agave multifilifera Details

Agave multifilifera has stiff and narrow, dark green leaves that protrude outwards from a central core. This gives a ball like display being held on a short trunk. The leaves themselves have white filaments which provides an interesting element to this plant. In summer, a stem emerges from the centre of the plant to bear a cluster of light green flowers with pink margins. It typically grows to 1.5 m tall and the same wide, growing best in full sun with a well-drained site essential. It is tolerant of dry conditions and coastal environments but should be protected from frost. Agave multifilifera is commonly used as an attractive feature in modern gardens, particularly when planted in clusters or used to contrast with other plant forms. It is also ideal for mixed plantings, rock gardens, or growing in a container.
