Product Description

Agave pachycentra is a rare, robust species native to southern Mexico, forming compact, solitary rosettes of thick, leathery blue-green leaves with prominent marginal teeth and a bold dark terminal spine. Its name—meaning "thick center"—reflects the plant’s heavily built core and short, wide leaves, giving it a uniquely stocky, muscular appearance. Adapted to dry slopes and rocky soils, it’s an ideal choice for collectors seeking low-growing, architectural succulents with strength and style.
