Large Agave Montana, Mountain agave, Live Plant, Succulent. The Photos in the listing are general photos. The one you will receive might look slightly different but will be very close to this. Currently potted in a 15 gallon bucket, will be cleaned off, and shipped bare root. The Agave Montana is a striking plant with blue-green leaves that form a rosette shape. Its leaves are long, narrow, and pointed, with serrated edges that give them a fierce appearance. This agave species is native to the mountains of northeastern Mexico, where it grows at elevations of up to 8,000 feet. The Agave Montana has been cultivated for centuries by indigenous peoples in the region, who have used it for food, fiber, and medicine. Its sweet sap is harvested and fermented to make a traditional alcoholic beverage called “pulque.” Its leaves are also used to make rope, baskets, and other crafts. In terms of care, the Agave Montana is a hardy plant that can tolerate a range of growing conditions. It prefers well-draining soil and plenty of sunlight, but it can also tolerate some shade. It’s drought-tolerant and doesn’t need a lot of water, but it should be watered occasionally during the growing season. This agave species is also quite cold-hardy and can tolerate freezing temperatures. One thing to keep in mind is that the Agave Montana can grow quite large, with some specimens reaching up to 6 feet in diameter. So it’s important to give it plenty of space to grow and thrive. With its stunning beauty and fascinating history, the Agave Montana is a wonderful addition to any garden or landscape.
