Agave Lemonade is a small rosette-forming succulent with stiff, architectural leaves in bright yellow-green tones, edged with the fine teeth typical of agaves. In a small pot it works like a piece of living sculpture for a sunny sill or a summer patio table.

Give it as much direct sun as you can offer indoors, a gritty cactus mix, and water only when the soil has dried completely; in winter, monthly is plenty. It grows slowly and stays in scale for years. Handle it by the pot rather than the leaf tips.
