Plant Description

Agave americana LIME VARIEGATED is a sculptural marvel that instantly commands attention with its dramatic silhouette and bold coloring. This rosette-forming succulent showcases broad, arching leaves with bright lime green centers framed by creamy-yellow variegated edges. Each leaf tapers to a sharp spine, delivering both elegance and edge. Mature specimens can span up to two meters wide, making this agave a striking focal point in xeriscapes or containers.

What sets Agave americana LIME VARIEGATED apart is its exceptional contrast in color and its slow-growing, statuesque form. The thick, fleshy leaves create a symmetrical rosette that radiates balance and strength. Its waxy texture not only enhances the plant’s glossy look but also helps reduce moisture loss, perfect for hot and dry climates. Gardeners love this variety for its architectural presence and ability to thrive with minimal care.

  • Striking lime and cream variegation adds year-round visual impact

  • Slow-growing and ideal for containers or dry landscapes

  • Sharp terminal spines give it bold structure and protection

  • Excellent heat and drought tolerance once established

  • Pairs beautifully with gravel, cacti, or minimalist garden styles

Finally, Agave americana LIME VARIEGATED is both tough and decorative, blending modern style with wild elegance. Whether used as a statement piece or grouped in a dry border, this succulent beauty offers texture, form, and tropical flair that’s hard to ignore.

Cultivation

Soil type: Requires very well-draining soil; sandy, rocky, or cactus mix preferred. Avoid compact or moisture-retentive substrates.

Watering frequency: Water moderately during growing season, allowing soil to dry out between waterings. Minimal watering in winter.

Light exposure: Full sun is ideal; tolerates partial shade, though full sun enhances variegation and compact growth.

Temperature requirements: Performs best between 18–32°C (64–90°F); can survive occasional drops to 5°C (41°F), but frost protection is advised.

Fertilization: Feed lightly during spring and summer with a diluted cactus fertilizer; avoid excessive feeding to preserve form.

Pruning: Remove old or damaged leaves from the base; use caution with sharp edges and terminal spines.

Common pests: Watch for scale insects and agave snout weevil; ensure airflow to prevent fungal issues.

Other care practices: Plant in raised beds or containers with drainage; avoid overwatering and crowding to retain leaf shape and variegation quality.
