Agave asperrima VARIEGATED N771 Agave asperrima VARIEGATED, also known as the Rough Agave or Maguey Liso, is a striking and ornamental variety of the Agave asperrima species. The variegation adds a unique aesthetic appeal to the plant. Here is a description and some cultivation tips: Description Origin: Native to northeastern Mexico. Appearance: This agave is characterized by its rosette of thick, fleshy leaves. The variegated form includes streaks or margins of different colors, typically cream or yellow, contrasting with the green of the leaves. Leaves: The leaves are broad, rigid, and have a rough texture, hence the name "asperrima" meaning "very rough". They often have sharp spines on the margins and a terminal spine. Size: It can grow quite large, with rosettes reaching several feet in both height and width. Flowers: Like other agaves, it blooms once at the end of its life, sending up a tall flower stalk with yellow flowers. Growth Pattern: Slow-growing, this plant can take several years to reach maturity. Cultivation Tips Light: Requires full sun to partial shade. The variegation may become more pronounced with sufficient light. Soil: Well-draining soil is crucial. Use a cactus or succulent mix or incorporate sand or gravel into regular potting soil. Watering: Water moderately in the growing season and reduce in winter. Ensure the soil dries out between waterings to prevent root rot. Temperature: It prefers warm conditions but is relatively cold-hardy compared to other agaves. It can withstand light frosts, but protection or moving it indoors in colder climates is advisable. Fertilizing: Light fertilization during the growing season can be beneficial but is not essential. Potting and Repotting: If grown in a container, ensure it is large enough to accommodate the root system and provides good drainage. Pests and Diseases: Watch for common pests like agave snout weevil. Overwatering can lead to fungal diseases. Propagation: Propagation is typically done through offsets or seed. Variegated traits might not always be passed through seeds, so propagation by offsets is preferable for maintaining variegation. Special Considerations Variegation: The variegated forms are often more sensitive to harsh conditions than the non-variegated types. They may require more protection from extreme sun, cold, or water stress. Rarity: Variegated versions of Agave asperrima can be rare and sought after, making them a prized possession for collectors. Remember, the key with Agave asperrima, especially the variegated form, is to avoid overwatering and to provide plenty of sunlight for optimal growth and variegation expression.
