Agave victoriae-reginae 'White Rhino'

449.99 $

Agave 'White Rhino' is a cultivated variety of Agave that attracts particular attention for its spectacular foliage. As its name suggests, 'White Rhino' has thick, stiff, broad leaves, often edged or marked with white or cream, contrasting sharply with the darker green of the rest of the leaf. This variegation recalls the robustness and color associated with the white rhino, hence the name of the variety.

Origin: Although the specific origin of 'White Rhino' is not clearly documented here, agaves in general are native to arid and semi-arid regions of the New World, ranging from the southern United States to America central and southern. The 'White Rhino' variety was probably developed by horticulturists for its beauty and special resilience.
Growth: Agave 'White Rhino' is slow to moderate growing and can get quite large, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, xeric gardens, or as a potted specimen. Over time, it can form an impressive rosette that is an eye-catcher in any landscape or interior arrangement.
Flowers: Like most agaves, 'White Rhino' will flower once mature, producing a tall flower spike with many flowers. This spectacular flowering usually marks the end of the life cycle of the plant, which dies after flowering, but it often leaves behind suckers that can be replanted.
Light: Prefers full sun exposure for optimal growth, but can tolerate partial light. Sufficient light is necessary to maintain variegation and general health of the plant.
Watering: Agave 'White Rhino' requires little watering, consistent with its needs as a succulent plant. Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings and avoid excessive moisture.
Substrate: Well-draining soil is essential. Use a cactus and succulent mix, with a good proportion of sand or gravel to ensure adequate drainage.
Toxicity: Like other agaves, 'White Rhino' can have sharp leaf edges and a sharp tip. Additionally, the sap can be irritating to the skin and eyes. It is advisable to handle the plant with care and place it out of reach of children and pets.
