Native to the limestone cliffs of Oaxaca, Mexico, Titanota Agave is a medium sized robust looking agave. It has ghostly white colored leaves arranged in a wide, open crown rosette of few leaves. The leaves can reach up to 50 cm long and 12 cm wide. Titanota is quite cold hardy especially in dry climates. However, it would be best to avoid exposure to extreme freezing temperatures for an extended amount of time. Titanota is very heat tolerant as well. These striking plants are wonderful when used to provide year round foliage color, as a patio plant. It is also a great plant for rock gardens. Here at Creekside, we currently have Titanota Agave available for sale in a 5 gallon size!

Native to South America, this unique and interesting plant was introduced in Europe in the 19th century. It is named after Prince Von Salm-Dyck, who was an early expert on succulents. However, Dyckias are not true succulents because they do not store their water internally like true succulents. They respond to stress by simply going dormant. This means that they are extremely drought tolerant. They are also one of the most cold hardy of the bromeliad genera. Dyckias have stiff pointy leaves with spiny margins, and typically have small compact flowers. They are great for rock or cactus gardens and are attractive in contemporary garden designs as they display a plethora of beautiful colors.
