Introducing the Agave lophantha splendida, known as center stripe agave, which is a stunning Agave century plant that hails from the arid regions of Mexico. It's a popular choice among plant enthusiasts for its unique and eye-catching features. 

The splendida agave is a clustering succulent with dark green leaves and a striking greenish-yellow central band. It grows up to 12 inches tall and 18 inches in diameter, with lance-shaped leaves, white teeth, and a terminal spine. What makes this agave so special is its striking coloration. The leaves display a beautiful combination of green, cream, pink, and purple hues, creating a captivating display. 


When it comes to flowering, Agave splendida produces tall flower stalks that can reach up to 6 feet in height.

The flowers themselves are usually yellow or green and bloom in the summer months.

However, it's important to note that agaves are monocarpic, meaning they only flower once in their lifetime before eventually dying.

As for center stripe agave care, it thrives in well-draining soil and prefers bright, indirect light.

It's important to water it sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot. If you're planning to keep Agave lophantha splendida indoors, it prefers warm temperatures of 65 °F – 75 °F. As for outdoor cultivation, this agave is hardy in USDA zones 9-11, which means it can tolerate mild frost but may require protection during colder temperatures. 

Propagation of Agave lophantha splendida can be done through offsets or pups that grow around the base of the parent plant. These can be carefully separated and replanted to produce new plants. It doesn't require much. You can use a balanced fertilizer specifically formulated for succulents, applying it sparingly during the growing season.
