Agave parryi

Parry's Agave is a perennial plant that forms rosettes and is native to the deserts of North and Central America. It has larger leaves and rosettes than many of its subspecies. The plant consists of compact, nearly round rosettes of gray-green leaves that can grow 7-20 inches long. The leaves have marginal teeth and a stout tooth on the tip. 

Parry's Agave ultimately forms colonies of many offsets. The mother plant blooms once, usually during the summer, and then dies. Flowers grow from tall stalks that can reach around 10-20 feet. It has a slow growth rate and requires little to no water. This Agave thrives in full sun or filtered sunlight. Little maintenance is needed when plants are given ample room to spread.

Indigenous peoples in the Americas used this plant to make fibers, soap, food, and medicine.
