| Agave americana |
This is an agave originally from Mexico but cultivated worldwide as an ornamental plant. It was introduced into Europe about the middle of the 16th century and it has since naturalised in many regions and grows wild in SE Iberian Peninsula. The name "century plant" refers to the long time the plant takes to flower. Tequila is made from certain species of agave.
