Queen Victoria Agave is known for its white lined, beautifully shaped leaves that form a spherical habit. ‘Porcupine’ was selected from the species for its compact habit. Although relatively hardy for Agave, good winter drainage is required. This species of Agave is slow growing.
Best grown in dry, rocky to sandy, well-draining soils in full sun. Provide supplemental irrigation during prolonged periods of summer drought. Greatly reduce watering during the winter dormant period. (Courtesy of Missouri Botanical Garden Plant Finder)
