An impressive species from western New Mexico and eastern Arizona, Parry’s Century Plant is one of the most cold hardy of the Agave family. Forming large, heavily toothed rosettes, the sword-like leaves are blue-green. When the plant decides to bloom (after many years of slow growth), it sends up a huge 12- to15-foot flowering spike that will attract hummingbirds from miles around. Aga- ves need a long period of hot summer weather to regrow their fleshy roots after transplanting.
