Agave Americana as a house plant

Agave americana is a succulent plant, native to Mexico. It is also known as  Century plant because it was believed that agave flowers only once in a hundred years. Blue-grey leaves form a rosette, and outdoors they can reach up to 2 meters in diameter.Edges of the leaves are covered with dark brown spines. The lifespan of agave is up to 30 years, when it is in nature, potted agave can live up to 10 years, and they will never flower.

Succulent habitats

Succulent plants are found everywhere, from tropical regions to the arctic circle. They are, however, less common in the areas where frost occurs in winter months. The greatest number of succulents grows in subtropical and tropical zones. Although succulents can occur in dry habitats, in real deserts they are rare. Only the toughest species can grow there, and then only in the hollows or rock crevices, where they can find some moisture. Fog or dew can be a source of water for these plants which have become adapted to it, but the true desert is too arid for any plant life.

Euphorbia Trigona is also called African milk tree because when you make some injury to the plant it
excretes milky fluid from the injury. It originates from Africa so it does not need a lot of water.
They tend to grow really high, so you should think about that when you plant your euphorbia.
