AGAVE VICTORIAE PORCUPINE 8in

Transform your indoor space with the striking Agave victoriae-reginae 'Porcupine', a succulent that demands attention! This particular agave is an ideal houseplant for anyone seeking a unique, architectural focal point without demanding constant care. Its compact size, typically maturing to about 12-18 inches in diameter, makes it perfect for a sunny windowsill, a bright desk, or even as a centerpiece on a coffee table.

The 'Porcupine' Agave thrives in bright, indirect to direct sunlight, making it an excellent choice for south or west-facing windows. While agaves are generally known for their outdoor hardiness, this cultivar adapts beautifully to indoor conditions, especially in arid climates like Prescott. You'll appreciate its low-maintenance nature, requiring infrequent watering, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.

For households with pets, you'll be glad to know that while some agaves can cause mild irritation if ingested due to their sharp spines, the Agave victoriae-reginae 'Porcupine' is generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs. However, due to its spiky nature, it's wise to place it in an area where curious pets are less likely to brush against it.

When it's time to repot this beauty, we highly recommend using Watters Potting Soil. This premium blend provides the excellent drainage and aeration that succulents crave, ensuring a healthy root system. To keep your 'Porcupine' Agave looking its best and to encourage robust growth, feed it monthly during the growing season (spring and summer). We suggest using either Urban Gardener's Super Growth Elixir or Fertilome's All Purpose Houseplant Food, following the label directions for dilution.
