Furcraea macdougalli - MacDougall's Century Plant
Furcraea macdougalli
MacDougall's Century Plant has long, grey-green sword-like leaves that form a basal rosette until it reaches maturity when it will start forming a thick trunk. Looking like a dramatically tall and narrow-leafed Agave, this Furcraea can be used as a singular specimen, mass planted or containerized for a minimalistic effect. False Agave is clean,-looking adaptable, and drought tolerant. Their leaves do have sharp, cat-claw-like teeth on the margins, so take care not to plant them away from high-traffic areas. Easy to grow.
Exposure Full sun, to part or filtered sun
Grows to 12-20 feet high and 6-8 feet wide
Hardiness Zone 9-11
*Plants ship bare root* Why bare root?
PLANT VARIATIONS
Please note that no two plants are exactly the same, that’s what makes them so unique! There may be some slight variations in height, width, amount of leaves, etc. We do our best to ensure your plants are consistent and keep our listings updated. As these are live plants, they change frequently.
SPECIAL REQUESTS
We have the ability to procure hundreds of varieties of plants from 2 inches to 5 gallons. If you do not see what you are looking for, please send us a message and we will see how we can assist you! Contact us
DOMESTIC USA SHIPPING
Our horticulture experts will determine if the plant needs to be shipped in soil, based on the particular species, size, and your hardiness zone. In general, agaves, cacti, and succulents will be shipped without soil, called “bare root.” (see below) We will find the best freight carrier to your address. While our top priority is a healthy, happy plant delivery, unfortunately, we have no control over how carriers handle our packages, nor where they are dropped off.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
All plants shipped beyond the USA mainland, including Alaska and Puerto Rico, will be shipped “bare root.” (see below) All plants shipped internationally, including Puerto Rico, require a Phytosanitary Certificate from the US Department of Agriculture.

Please check with your local customs department to see if you need any additional certifications, such as import permits. Note: while we have extensive experience and a track record of successful international plant shipments, we are unable to guarantee the plants' condition upon arrival.
BARE ROOT SHIPPING
This process simplifies shipping by dramatically decreasing the package weight, which keeps the cost of shipping as low as possible.
Both of my plants arrived very well packaged and healthy. They're thriving! Thank you so much!
I have been looking for this plant and couldn't find it anywhere local. Can't wait to watch them grow into beautiful eye catching plants.
Ordered a plant & it took over 2 weeks to arrive. The box was ripped in half & so was the plant. Then they say that they’re going to replace it free. What they sent was a fraction of the size I paid for @ $59. The replacement they sent was a 1 gallon, NOT the 5 gallon size I paid for. So dissatisfied & disappointed with them. Will never shop here again. BUYER BEWARE!
