Agave Lophantha key facts
- Growing Difficulty
- Beginner-friendly
- Lifespan
- Perennial (15-25 years)
- Size
- 30-60cm
- Watering
- Minimal
- Light & Placement
- It prefers direct sun, and bright light brings out the two-tone leaf color best. It can be grown in the ground or in pots.
- Watering
- Water after the soil dries and avoid overwatering. It is tough and easy to grow, but too much water causes root rot.
- Temperature
- Relatively cold-hardy (to about -5C)
- Soil & Repotting
- Use a fast-draining mix. Growth is moderate, reaching 40 to 70 cm across, so pot up before it becomes root-bound.
- Propagation
- It spreads vigorously by offsets, so it is easily propagated by division. Separate offsets once they have grown a bit.
