The program was phenomenally successful at reducing large stands of prickly pear in a relatively short period of time. Over the next several decades, C. cactorum was then taken to other parts of the world to control invasive prickly pear, including Hawaii in 1950 and the Caribbean island of Nevis in 1956. Spreading from Nevis to other islands, C. cactorum was eventually detected in the Florida Keys in 1989.

  • Cactus Island
    CACTUS ISLAND AFRICA - AMERICA - MADAGASCAR AMERICA’S CACTUS ISLAND This Agave is a spectacular hybrid of green leaves with a red margin. It can be planted in full sun or in sun-shade. It should be planted in well-drained soil and watered once a month. During winter it is advisable not to water it too much to increase its resistance to cold. It is advisable to avoid that the snow accumulates between the leaves. Tª min approx -8 / -10 ºC. AGAVE ARISTOCRAT Agave salmiana var. ferox (Agave ferox) is a variety of the agave of the Salmiana species belonging to the genus Agave and family Asparagaceae. The ferox subspecies is very close to the typical subspecies in terms of description and culture. It differs by having even thicker and stiffer blades, pointed ends (up to 8 cm) and even sharper lateral spines. This is why it is called by that name. Place of origin: Mexico. AGAVE FEROX NOTES: Agaves tolerate arid and semi-desert areas well, in fact, they are usually the only survivors in abandoned gardens. Ideal for plantations that do not need care or irrigation. They prefer sunny and airy places, with well-drained soils. Very little or no watering if the plant grows in full soil. In a pot, they should be watered but very little. Agave lophantha is a plant native to the deserts of Chihuahua and Sonora. It forms a rosette of coriaceous leaves or leaves up to 45cm high and 60cm wide, with jagged edges. The flowers appear grouped in reddish-yellow inflorescences up to 4m high.
