Commonly known as the 'century plant', maguey, or American aloe, this is a flowering plant species belonging to the family Asparagaceae. It is native to Mexico and the United States, specifically Texas.
Light: Like all Agaves, this plant requires full sun to partial shade. If growing A. americana indoors, choose a bright, sunny window with as much sun as possible. From spring to fall, it loves going outside.
Soil: A. americana will tolerate most soils if they have good drainage, but it prefers sandy or rocky soil.
Watering: From spring to fall, water thoroughly when the soil becomes dry. In winter, water sparingly about once a month. Plants in containers require more frequent watering than those in the ground.
Fertilizing: For the first two years, give your A. americana a small amount of fertilizer in the spring. Established plants seem to take care of themselves.
