Agaves are long-leaved succulent plant that naturally form a rosette shape and produce flower spires of attractive cup shaped blooms. They are drought tolerant and perennial, making it ideal for mature arid gardens. The succulent in this photo, Agave attenuate, is a species of agave sometimes known as the "lion's tail," "swan's neck," or "foxtail" for its development of a curved stem, unusual among agaves. Native to the plateau of the State of Jalisco in central Mexico, as one of the unarmed agaves, it is popular as an ornamental plant in gardens in many other places.
