Main Taxa
Agave attenuata (Salm 1834) This is undoubtedly one of the few unmistakable species in this genus, if not the only one. Its small size, harmless appearance, and relatively simple cultivation make it a common plant in gardens of temperate regions.
Agave cupreata (Trel & Berger 1915) It forms solitary rosettes of large, fleshy, rigid, light green leaves with coppery tones along the margins. It has virtually no defined stem. The leaves are lanceolate, with marginal spines and a strong terminal spine. The inflorescence is a robust flower stalk reaching up to 6 meters. It blooms only once at the end of its life. It inhabits the dry, rocky areas of Guerrero and Michoacán. It is used to produce mezcal. Etymology: From the Latin "cupreus", referring to the coppery color of the plant. Place of Origin: Mexico, regions of Guerrero and Michoacán.
Agave potatorum (Zucc. 1833)
Agave salmiana (Otto ex Salm )
Agave victoriae-reginae (T. Moore 1875)
