Agave americana

Agave americana, affectionately known as the Blue Century Plant, hails from the beautiful landscapes of Mexico and boasts stunning rosette-shaped succulents. This resilient evergreen has spread its charm and has been embraced in various tropical regions around the globe. With its impressive large, lanceolate, gray-green rosettes, this plant can grow to a standout height and width of 6 to 8 feet over time. Each leaf is a unique marvel, showcasing spiny tips, lovely waxy blooms, and sharp edges that add character to its form. Although flowering happens infrequently, when it does, it puts on a spectacular show.

 

The life of Agave americana is quite unique—it's monocarpic, meaning it puts all its energy into blooming just once before saying goodbye. It can grace us with its presence for up to 100 years before flowering, which is why it’s often called the century plant. Typically, outdoor plants will bloom somewhere between the tenth and 25th year, whereas homegrown ones tend to take a break from flowering. But when an outdoor Agave americana finally decides to bloom, it proudly sends up a tall and elegant flowering stalk that can rise between 15 and 30 feet! This stalk looks a bit like a narrow telephone pole, sporting horizontal branches near the top that are adorned with beautiful greenish-yellow flowers, each measuring about 3 to 4 inches long, blooming in lovely clusters at the tips of the branches. Over time, you’ll notice suckers and offsets rooting at the base of each rosette, often leading to a delightful colony of new plants. Even after a plant flowers and dies, the offsets surrounding it keep the story alive as they continue to grow.

 

Agave americana is also quite reliable in winter, thriving in USDA zones 8-10. This lovely plant flourishes best in full sun with sandy/gritty, well-drained, and dry to medium moisture soil. For container gardening, using a gritty, cactus-type potting mix is a great choice, but ensuring a sharp drainage system is crucial to keep root rot at bay. It’s quite accepting of dry soil and drought conditions too! Plus, you can propagate this wonderful plant from either seeds or offsets, making it even easier to share its beauty with others.

Needs to outgas for a day or two and then its great.
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
Needs to outgas for a couple days, ideally outside on a clothes line. Having said that its the first pillow out of a half dozen Ive bought in the last 18 mos that I can sleep on. Sleeping much better and longer now. Latex foam is the only pillow for me. I swear I searched on here a year or so ago and could not find one.

Goldilocks pillow
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I tried 5 different latex pillows, 2 from this brand. Most had to much loft and were too firm. This brand has one called extra soft that was comfortable but a little too soft. BUT, I could tell the latex was better so I tried this one. It strikes the perfect balance of support and is not too firm. Compared to all the other brands I would call this one soft/medium as all others "medium" were pretty firm. This one is just right!

Perfect supportive soft pillow

The perfect pillow that is hypoallergenic. It’s soft but your head doesn’t sink through. Supportive and soft at the same time. Have bought more pillows.

Very firm pillow
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I'm not sure I received the same pillow as advertised. The pillows I received are extremely firm. I would not classify it as medium. It was also not covered by a cotton case. it had a very sheer gauze like material covering the latex.

Super springy and comfy!
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1, Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I’ve been looking for a pillow that offers support but is soft and cushy. I had never tried a latex pillow before, and I was skeptical because I heard it could be hard, but I decided to give it a try. I tried a memory foam and it was waaaaay too hard to be comfortable. This pillow retains its shape, is really soft and plushy, and works great for back or side sleeping. It had a slight smell (not unpleasant though) when we first unboxed it, but it was gone by day 2. The pillow also sprang up immediately on unwrapping it. After a few days it seemed a little bit bigger, but it didn’t really need any time to air out/fluff up, it was basically ready straight out of the box. I’m often picky about pillows because I get headaches from sleeping on my neck in the wrong way, but this one is great and I haven’t had a problem at all. My hubby likes it too :) it’s the favorite house pillow now.
