Description:

The variegated shape of this plant has streaks or yellowish shades due to the lack of chlorophyll; this characteristic makes the exemplar unique and very sought after by collectors. A. scabra f. variegated is a medium-large species, similar to the American Agave but more rigid and stylized. The name of the species indicates precisely its characteristic of being remarkably sharper than other specimens. It has remarkable rosettes formed by rigid long and rough leaves, with margins equipped with small and robust brown spines. After about 15/20 years, A. scabra during the summer period generates, on a long stem, numerous yellow flowers.

Plant care:

It requires a full sun exposure, even if it can stand a partial shade one only if it receives plenty of light all year around.

It prefers rather mild temperatures, however it survives even in temperatures close to freezing if the soil is dry.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. Once every two weeks in spring and summer and once every two months in autumn and winter.

A well-draining soil is an optimal solution, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
