AGAVES, an overview

Garden photojournalist Debra Lee Baldwin, author of Designing with Succulents and Succulent Container Gardens, introduces 17 different kinds of agave and shows their uses in the landscape, gardens and containers. Hardiness (how much cold each kind will tolerate) is given for each. CORRECTION: The second and third agaves introduced are backward - the picture of desmettiana is labeled as angustifolia and vice-versa. Apologies! -- Debra **CAUTION** AGAVE SAP CAN CAUSE CONTACT DERMATITIS. Do you have a bloomed-out agave that needs removing? Before you tackle it yourself... -- DO A PATCH TEST to find out if you're allergic to agave sap. -- USE COMMON SENSE: The drier the agave, the less its moisture content. The fresher the agave, the greater the risk of sap exposure. -- PROTECT YOUR SKIN: Wear wrap-around eye protection, long sleeves, pants and gloves. Cover your hair. -- USE A HAND SAW unless you have experience removing large agaves (you do it for a living) and know what you're doing. A power saw can spray sap. Don't wipe your face with your sleeves or other parts of your clothing that may have bits of the plant or the sap on them. -- IF ITCHING OR RASH DEVELOPS, wash the affected area immediately. If symptoms persist, get medical care. Don't delay. SEE A DERMATOLOGIST. -- FIND TREATMENT SUGGESTIONS at https://debraleebaldwin.com/debra-lee...
