Agave attenuata ssp. attenuata
Fox Tail - Lions Tail - Swans Neck seeds

The dragon tree agave (Agave attenuata ssp. attenuata) is a perennial succulent plant from the Mediterranean region. It develops large blue-gray leaf rosettes with stingless, pointed leaves (up to 70 cm long). After several years, an approximately 3m high, mostly curved inflorescence develops with greenish yellow flowers.

There is no pre-treatment of the seeds required.

The seeds are sown in mineral-based cat litter (no clumping litter) or perlite (germ-free) in plastic-pots. Please sow the seeds on the mineral soil. Bigger seeds need to be covered with the mineral soil, small seeds should remain on the surface.

Then put the plastic pot in a zip lock bag - with a pot size of 6 cm , a zip lock bag of size 12 x 17 cm is recommended . Fill in the zip lock bag as much tap water with a few drops of universal fertilizer, so that after the absorption of the substrate a few mm of water remain on the bottom.

Location: on the windowsill or in a small greenhouse in partial shade, daytime temperatures at about 73-83 F, somewhat lower at night at 68-72 F.
