Agave Growing Instructions
Agave are low-water indoor plants. Many varieties are actually native to hot, arid areas of Mexico and Central America -- so as long as you have plenty of light (they're sun worshippers) you should expect them to thrive with minimal watering in your home. They're also particularly good plants for decorating a sunny deck, patio, or balcony over the hot summer months.Note: Agave is not meant for human or animal consumption.
