Tempted to buy a large 4ft by 6ft across Agave (Century Plant) that I have seen on eBay; the only issue I have, is that the buyer has to transplant the plant themselves which will mean digging it up now, and with several months of cold weather ...

I wanted to record how much my Agaves grow . So on the 23 sept 2017 I wrote the date on a plant label and using no nails adhesive fixed it on the newest leaf top thorn. So on the 14th of November 2018 the Americana Variegata had grown six leafs and the Wocomahi had grown seven over fourteen months. ...

Hi Been meaning to post this for a few weeks now. Anybody any idea what as caused the discolourization on just one leaf of my Agave Franzosinii, It was outside for the summer(possible drips from overhang tree?)

Do anyone know how hardy Agave americana is and is the variegated form as hardy? I have one planted in the garden and a couple in pots and they all made it through the winter unscathed. The only protection they had was a piece of ply ...

Well, it's almost there. This has taken almost exactly a year to get from lump at the top of the plant to ready to flower. I'm pretty convinced that this is a Montana.

I can't seem to get the image upright, so my apologies for the need to neck crane!

Planning on repotting some agaves this season just wondering what kind of mix people use I've heard of people using things like ballast etc

Another one just picked up off eBay, should grow into a nice sized plant.

Just arrived courtesy of eBay. Another rare Japanese cultivar as claimed or another tissue culture agave? I love it and have not seen another one similar for sale anywhere. It's got a bit of superficial damage but that should soon grow out.

I finished my arid bed in the Spring and misplaced the IDs for my two of the bigger plants .... just found them!! Agave havardiana and Yucca gloriosa. I would really appreciate a few snippets of advice, particularly overwintering. My intention is to cloche them to keep dry.

My attenuatta is not four feet tall in the trunk and has a huge head,is it possible to decapitate the head leaving a small trunk to hopefully grow roots? It's getting too big to lug in and out in winter

I have a number of Agave (mainly Americanna - I think I have all varieties now) that I bought this year. Mainly offsets, all in well draining soil (at least 60% grit and compost) in terracotta and metal pots on top of gravel on a south ...

while on holiday i purchased a white centred agave can anyone give some info on this plant compared to the americana and the blue version try to post a picture soon.

Hi, I have been given a small offset and was wondering if anyone had one planted in the uk? Amrulee are suggesting that it handles cold and wet winters well, but I am sceptical.

Thanks, paul
