If you are looking for a stunning and unique addition to your agave plant collection, then look no further than the blue agave century plant, also known as Agave tequilana.

It is famous for its role in the production of tequila, a beloved alcoholic beverage. This Agave tequilana blue agave plant is also known as Weber blue agave, tequila plant, agave tequila, or agave azul tequila.

The blue agave tequilana is not only a visually appealing agave plant but has also held cultural significance in Mexico for over 200 years. Its large, succulent leaves contain a sweet, sap-like juice.  Agave tequilana is an essential ingredient in the production of tequila, a distilled spirit made from the blue agave plant's sugars.


The heart of your Blue Agave plant, known as the piña, is harvested and processed to extract the sugars, which are then fermented and distilled to create tequila. 

It takes a maximum of 7–12 years for the Agave Tequilana to reach its mature height; one mature piña yields around 5 liters of tequila.

Similar Mexican beverages, mezcal, and pulque, are also produced using different extraction methods from the same plant.

The Agave tequilana, with its adorable thick, fleshy leaves in a striking blue-gray color forming a rosette, adds to its visual appeal.

These blue agave plants can grow up to 8 feet tall and spread up to 10 feet wide. The Agave tequilana have sharp, spiky edges on their leaves, so it's important to handle them with care.

The flowers of the Agave tequilana bloom in summer with pale green, red, or yellow flowers. This large and hardy blue agave is an extremely fast-growing tequila plant. This large and hardy blue agave is an extremely fast-growing tequila plant.

The easiest way to propagate your Agave tequilana is through small shoots. When you remove the offsets from the mother plant, ensure that the sprouts have some roots attached. Additionally, the fiber and pulp of the tequila plant are used to make soap and other products. 

Watering Needs 

When it comes to watering this drought-tolerant blue agave, it's important to strike the right balance. Water your Agave tequilana blue agave plant deeply once a week for about 4 weeks in the beginning.

Once established, water your blue agave two times a month and reduce it in winter, taking natural rainfall into account. It's important to note that the agave tequilana plant may naturally go dormant during this time, so don't be alarmed if it appears less active.

Remember, it's always better to underwater than overwater as in the Blue Agave. Observing the tequila plant's leaves can also provide clues about its watering needs.

If the leaves appear plump and firm, it indicates that the Agave tequilana is well hydrated. On the other hand, if the leaves start to appear wrinkled or shriveled, it may be a sign that your blue agave tequila needs a      drink.

Light Requirements

If you're growing the blue agave indoors, it's crucial to place it near a bright, sunny window where it can receive as much direct sunlight as possible. Supplemental grow lights can also be used to provide the necessary light requirements if natural sunlight is limited. Remember, tequila agave plants are sun-loving agave plants, so providing them with ample sunlight will help ensure their overall health and vibrant appearance.

When planted outdoors, the Blue Agave tequilana thrives in full sun exposure, making it an excellent choice for gardens or landscapes with plenty of sunlight. It requires at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight each day to ensure optimal growth and development. Placing your Agave tequilana in a location that receives ample sunlight will help the blue agave plant maintain its vibrant blue-gray color and overall health. 

In areas with extremely hot climates or intense sunlight, providing some afternoon shade can be beneficial to prevent sunburn or scorching of the leaves. However, it's important to strike a balance and not provide too much shade, as this can lead to leggy growth and a less compact appearance.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs

To keep the Blue Agave happy and healthy, it's important to provide it with well-draining, rich, and sandy soils that mimic its natural habitat. A sandy or rocky soil mix works best, as it allows excess water to drain away quickly and prevents the agave plant's roots from sitting in soggy soil. We believe the best option is to use our specialty succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your blue agave succulent thrive.

When it comes to fertilizing your blue agave, it's generally a low-maintenance agave plant that doesn't require frequent fertilization. In fact, excessive fertilization can lead to overgrowth and a weaker tequila agave. A slow-release, low-nitrogen fertilizer applied once a year in the spring can provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.

Remember, Agave tequila is adapted to nutrient-poor soils, so it doesn't have high fertilizer requirements. Providing it with well-draining soil and occasional, light fertilization will help ensure its optimal growth and overall health. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

When growing indoors, the blue agave thrives in warm and dry conditions. It can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, from around 50°F to 90°F. However, it prefers temperatures between 70°F and 80°F. As for humidity, it is adapted to arid environments and can tolerate low humidity levels. It is important to avoid overwatering the tequila plant to prevent root rot, as it prefers drier conditions.

For outdoor cultivation, this Weber blue agave tequilana is well-suited in USDA zones 9 and 10. The succulent plant can suffer freezing damage and, hence, can withstand temperatures as low as 20 F, but may suffer damage or die back if exposed to prolonged freezing temperatures. In colder climates, it is best to grow Agave tequilana as a potted agave plant that can be brought indoors during the winter months.

Final Thoughts

Overall, the tequila plant (Agave tequilana) also known as Blue Agave, is a fascinating plant that plays a significant role in tequila production. Its popularity stems from the fact that it is the primary ingredient used to make tequila, a beloved Mexican spirit. The Blue Agave's unique flavor profile and high sugar content make it perfect for creating this iconic drink. In terms of care, Blue Agave is relatively low-maintenance. It thrives in well-draining soil and requires minimal watering once established. It's a stunning plant that not only adds beauty to landscapes but also contributes to the delicious world of tequila.
