Water: Originating from arid regions, filigree Sierra Mixteca Agave thrives in dry conditions with high drought tolerance. It requires watering once every three weeks and is ideal for xeriscapes, storing water in its leaves to survive extended periods without rain.
Fertilize: Fertilize filigree Sierra Mixteca Agave monthly during the growing season (spring to summer) using a 3:3:2 nitrogen-phosphate-potassium ratio. Opt for low-concentration liquid or compound fertilizers. Avoid fertilization in late fall and early winter as growth slows and dormancy occurs.
Pruning: As filigree Sierra Mixteca Agave develops new leaves, the lower leaves yellow and dry. Promptly removing these old leaves enhances the plant's appearance. Additionally, trim leaves affected by pests or diseases to protect healthy foliage.
Propagation: Propagation of filigree Sierra Mixteca Agave is most commonly done through division during growing seasons or repotting. Shoots with roots can be directly potted; others need to heal for 5 days. Seeds are rarely used due to slow growth, requiring cross-pollination and taking about 10 days to germinate.
