Agave stricta is a succulent evergreen perennial up 20 inches (50 cm) tall, with rosettes of narrow, spine-tipped dark green leaves up to 16 inches (40 cm) long. Small reddish flowers borne in dense, erect racemes up to 6.6 feet (2 m) long.
Agave is not a difficult plant to grow. They’re slow-growing and dramatic and will even thrive on a bit of neglect. If you’re the type of person who likes to fuss with houseplants and water a lot, Agave is probably not the plant for you. If, however, you’re the type of person who likes to set it and forget it, and you have a sunny window, Agave might the way to go. Be aware that some of the large varieties will eventually outgrow your room (unless you have a large greenhouse), and Agave can be aggressive. They have irritating sap and sometimes very sharp thorns that can cause injuries to small children and even pets.
