Know your Agaves
Agaves are one of the most versatile and beautiful plants for the California landscape, as well as other arid regions where xeric plants thrive (plants that thrive in dry conditions).
Agave varieties offer endless options in color, texture and size. They create striking focal specimens, beautiful mass plantings or are a sculptural addition to gardens.
Plant spotlight- Romneya coulteri
This beautiful California native perennial is known for its large white crepe paper like petals and large cluster of yellow stamens, that some say looks like a fried egg. It’s a fantastic low maintenance, low water use perennial, but it only thrives in certain growing conditions.
