King Ferdinand Agave

🌵 New at Cactus Outlet: Agave Nickelsiae (Formerly Agave Ferdinand-Regiis) 🌟

We’re thrilled to introduce the Agave Nickelsiae, previously known as Agave ferdinandi-regis, to our collection. A striking relative of the Queen Victoria Agave, this agave offers a unique, sculptural form with a more open growth habit. Native to Mexico, the Agave Nickelsiae is an exquisite and low-maintenance plant, perfect for adding desert elegance to any garden or indoor space.

🌞 Key Features:

Slow-Growing & Compact Size: This agave grows slowly to a mature size of about 18" tall by 18" wide, making it a fantastic choice for smaller spaces or container gardening.

Sun & Heat Tolerant: Thrives in full sun and intense heat, making it ideal for hot, sunny spots in your garden or landscape.

Cold Tolerant: Although it prefers warmth, the Agave Nickelsiae can withstand short periods of cold down to 10°F, provided it is kept dry in winter to avoid rot.

Minimal Care: A low-maintenance beauty that requires little attention once established, making it the perfect “living sculpture” for those with busy schedules.

🏡 Perfect for Pots or Landscape:

Ideal for Containers: The Agave Nickelsiae makes a stunning statement as a potted plant, adding a touch of desert sophistication to your home or patio.

Landscape Versatility: In the right climate, it can also be planted outdoors, where it thrives in xeriscaped or low-water gardens.

Dramatic Groupings: Consider grouping multiple Agave Nickelsiae together for an eye-catching display that matures into a stunning centerpiece.

🌵 Mature Specimens:

For a preview of what your Agave Nickelsiae could look like as it matures, check out the first two images in our album. Our 15-gallon specimens are well-established and show the plant’s potential as it grows into a beautiful, sculptural form.

🚚 Planting & Shipping Details:

Our 5-gallon plants arrive at approximately 8" x 8" in size, ready to be planted.

Shipped bare root for easy planting, each agave is carefully selected, wrapped and packed to ensure it arrives in pristine condition, ready to be easily planted in a stress-free way. All plants come with planting, watering and general care instructions.
