Product Description

The extraordinary Agave titanota cv. WHITE SHARK (mediopicta variegated) is a stunning cultivar that exemplifies sculptural desert elegance. A rare selection of Agave titanota, this form features a bold mediopicta variegation, where the creamy-white to ivory central stripe contrasts beautifully against thick, powdery glaucous-blue to silvery-grey leaves. The rosette is dense and symmetrical, with broad, heavily textured leaves edged with dramatically pronounced, shark-tooth-like spines in deep brown to almost black hues. These fierce marginal teeth undulate along the leaf margins, enhancing the plant's prehistoric, armor-like appearance. True to its name, WHITE SHARK embodies a fierce yet refined presence, prized by collectors for its unique variegation pattern and compact, slow-growing habit. Native to the arid regions of Mexico, this cultivar is a drought-tolerant gem with architectural value, ideal for rock gardens, containers, or minimalist landscapes where its variegated foliage becomes a living sculpture. Its rarity and exceptional leaf coloration make it a standout among Agaves.

Cultivation

Soil type: Fast-draining, gritty cactus or succulent mix; avoid moisture-retentive soils.

Light exposure: Full sun to bright filtered light; intense sun enhances color but may require acclimatization.

Fertilization: Light feeding in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced cactus fertilizer.

Pruning: Not required; remove dead lower leaves carefully to preserve rosette shape.

Common pests: Watch for mealybugs, scale, and agave snout weevil—ensure good airflow and inspect regularly.

Other care practices: Rotate container-grown specimens periodically for even growth; provide excellent drainage.
