Agave attenuata, commonly known as Foxtail Agave or Swan’s Neck Agave, is a striking, sculptural succulent admired for its soft, architectural form and dramatic flowering display. Native to central Mexico, this rosette-forming plant features broad, smooth, pale green leaves with no spines—making it a gentler alternative to many other agaves. Mature plants produce a spectacular, curved flower spike that rises like a swan’s neck, arching gracefully and covered in creamy-yellow blooms. Ideal for dry gardens, coastal landscapes, and large containers, Foxtail Agave thrives in full sun to light shade and well-drained soils. Its bold yet soft appearance makes it a standout feature in both contemporary and Mediterranean-style plantings.
