Looking for a stunning and low-maintenance plant to brighten up your indoor space? Oh, let me tell you about the Agave kavandivi! A truly stunning new species of Agave was discovered in western Oaxaca, Mexico. This perennial plant is a true gem, with its striking evergreen foliage and easy-care nature. Whether you're an experienced plant parent or just starting out, this versatile beauty is sure to impress. Not only is it safe for both humans (keep away from children, pets), but it also thrives in partial shade with moderate watering needs.
An interesting bit of Agave information is its clumpy growth habit, often known as a clump-forming species. In areas where winter temperatures drop below 30 degrees Fahrenheit overnight, it should be protected and placed indoors. These plants favor a well-drained soil mix, so here at Planet Desert, we have specialized succulent potting soil.
But that's not all – it's also an extremely drought-tolerant species and requires minimum attention. So, let's dive in and discover everything there is to know about this fabulous houseplant!
