Hi: I was recently shown Agave Americana plants that I was told had been planted 15 years ago. A long row of hundreds of them, used as fencing. Not even one of...
Hi, Desmond. Agave americana is better known as the Century plant, so that must give you a clue as to how soon they will flower. Here in England I have had to...
I have lived on this property for 20 years and there was a large Agave Americana growing here when we moved in. It is bigger (8feet plus) and I thought it...
Hey, wait a minute, all plants flower. Some only with spores, but they flower. It just may just be growing conditions. Don't blame it on the plant. This...
Bob I certainly don't intend to die that young. 40 years is not an average life time. Would stress of lack of water cause it to flower and thus die,? Norma ......

Okay, we never learned the metric system here. Translate please into inches. Sounds like a hell of a lot of rain for Agave. Norma ... From: "DesNaz"...
That is way too much water, I'm surprised they aren't dead, they must be stressed before flowering I think? 12" is okay and occasionally more or less,...
... I appreciate the upbraid, and I agree metric makes a hell of a lot more sense, but I'm in the minority everywhere here.:) At least I was a few weeks ago:) ...
