Agave weberi, Weber's Agave, is a large open rosette of long blue-grey leaves that arch outward and taper to a fine point. Mature leaf margins are almost smooth, unusual in a plant of this size, which gives the whole rosette a softer outline than most big agaves. It builds a broad trunkless mound.
Full sun, free-draining soil and very little else. It grows quickly at 30 to 60 centimetres a year, tolerates salt-laden coastal wind, shrugs off long dry periods and takes light to moderate frost once established. Offsets form around the base and can be lifted and replanted or cut away for a single rosette.
Use it where there is room: coastal frontages, carpark islands, roadside beds, large rockeries and commercial landscapes that have to survive on rainfall. One plant fills a three metre bed on its own, which makes it an efficient way to cover ground in hot, exposed sites with no irrigation.
About Weber's Agave
Agave weberi is a large evergreen succulent forming an open rosette of long, arching, blue-grey leaves that taper to a fine point. Unusually for an agave of this size the mature leaf margins are almost smooth, so the outline is softer than most. It suckers from the base and is grown as a broad feature plant.
A single rosette reaches roughly 1.2 to 1.5 metres high and 2 to 3 metres wide, and clumps spread further as offsets develop. Plan the bed around the width rather than the height. Give it two and a half to three metres of clear ground so the arching leaves are not pushed against paving or walls.
Quickly for an agave, 30 to 60 centimetres a year through the warm months given sun and drainage. Plants reach a useful landscape size within two to three seasons, which is why it is often chosen for jobs that need immediate presence. Growth slows sharply over winter and in cold inland gardens.
Yes, it is one of the better succulents for the coast. It handles salt-laden wind, sand and the sharp drainage that comes with it, and is used on foreshore reserves and beachside frontages. Sandy soil suits it as it is. Water through dry spells in the first year while roots extend into the sand.
Established plants tolerate light to moderate frost. Young plants and recent transplants are more vulnerable, so plant in spring rather than autumn in cold districts and let them settle before winter. As with all agaves, cold combined with wet soil is the danger, and drainage matters more than the minimum temperature.
Highly. Once established it survives on rainfall through long dry periods and is regularly specified for unirrigated sites. Growth is faster with occasional deep watering in summer, so if speed matters, water monthly for the first two years. Beyond that, extra water gives little benefit and can encourage rot in heavy soil.
Remove dry lower leaves at the base to keep the rosette clean, and lift or cut away offsets if you want a single specimen rather than a clump. Wear gloves and long sleeves, as the leaf tips are sharp and the sap can irritate skin. No pruning, feeding or spraying is otherwise needed.

Agave weberi – Weber's Agave is Native to Mexico and northeastern Mexico.
Its mature flower spikes provide a valuable nectar source for bees and other beneficial pollinators when in bloom, supporting biodiversity within dry-climate and ornamental landscapes. The large rosette structure can also provide sheltered microhabitats for beneficial insects within garden settings.
Agave weberi – Weber's Agave will thrive best in:
Agave weberi performs best in free-draining sandy or loam soils with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH. It will also tolerate poor soils, rocky sites and challenging landscape conditions provided drainage remains excellent. Avoid heavy clay or persistently wet conditions, as excess moisture can lead to root and crown problems. Allow the soil to dry thoroughly between watering once established to maintain healthy growth, foliage quality and long-term vigour.
Is Agave weberi – Weber's Agave Drought tolerant?
As a young plant it benefits from occasional watering to establish a healthy root system, particularly during extended dry periods. Once established, Weber's Agave shows exceptional drought tolerance and performs reliably through prolonged dry conditions with little to no supplementary watering.

Trachelospermum jasminoides 'Balls' is Star Jasmine grown and clipped into a dense evergreen sphere. The small glossy leaves sit tight on a woody framework, holding a clean rounded outline year round. White pinwheel flowers open in spring and carry a strong sweet scent right across a courtyard.
Ball specimens hold at about 1 to 1.5 metres tall and wide with light clipping. Full sun to part shade suits them, in any free draining soil. Growth is slow to moderate at 30 to 50 centimetres a year. They handle coastal exposure, light frost and dry spells once the roots are down.
Repeat them along a driveway, either side of an entry, or in pots on a terrace where a formal shape is wanted straight away. They read as structure in a planting scheme without the height of a hedge, and because the form is already trained, a new garden looks settled from the day it goes in.
About Star Jasmine Balls
They are Trachelospermum jasminoides, the common Star Jasmine, grown and clipped into a dense evergreen sphere on a woody framework. Instead of climbing, the plant is trained into a self supporting rounded shape. The foliage is small, glossy and dark green, and the plant carries scented white flowers through spring.
They hold at roughly 1 to 1.5 metres tall and 1 to 1.5 metres wide. Growth is slow to moderate at 30 to 50 centimetres a year, so a light clip once or twice a year keeps the ball tight at whatever size within that range suits the setting.
Full sun to part shade both work. Full sun gives the densest foliage and the heaviest flowering, while part shade produces slightly softer, more open growth and fewer flowers. Avoid deep shade, where the ball thins out and loses its outline. Morning sun with afternoon protection suits hot inland gardens.
Yes, and pots are one of the main uses. A container 50 to 60 centimetres wide with a quality free draining mix will hold a ball for years. Water more often than you would in the ground, especially in summer, and feed in spring and again in late summer. Refresh the mix every few years.
Yes, the foliage is held year round. The glossy dark green leaves take on a bronze tinge in cold weather and green up again in spring, but the plant never goes bare. That is what makes it useful as permanent structure in a scheme, particularly in winter once perennials have died back.
Flowering runs through spring, roughly September to November, and often carries into early summer in warmer districts. The white pinwheel flowers are small but produced in quantity, and the scent is strong on still evenings. Flowering is heaviest on plants in full sun that were not clipped hard just before bud set.
Clip lightly with hedging shears once after flowering and again in late summer if needed, taking only the new growth to keep the outline crisp. Water deeply in dry weather, mulch the base, and feed in early spring. The sap is milky and can irritate skin, so wear gloves when trimming.
Westringia fruticosa, Coastal Rosemary, is an Australian native evergreen shrub from the headlands and dunes of the east coast. It builds a dense rounded bush of fine grey green leaves held in whorls, with small white to pale lilac flowers. Despite the common name it is not the culinary herb.
Mature plants sit at 1.5 to 2 metres tall and 1.5 to 2 metres wide, growing 30 to 60 centimetres a year, and they clip smaller without complaint. Full sun to part shade and sharp drainage are the requirements. Salt wind, sandy soil, drought and light to moderate frost are all handled.
It is a standard on coastal projects, road verges, council garden beds and exposed banks that need erosion cover. Plant 1 to 1.5 metres apart for an informal screen, or 80 centimetres for a clipped hedge. A single plant fills a 40 to 50 centimetre pot on a courtyard or balcony.
About Coastal Rosemary
Westringia fruticosa is an Australian native evergreen shrub from the headlands and dunes of the east coast. It forms a dense rounded bush of fine grey green leaves held in whorls, with small white to pale lilac flowers. Despite the common name it is not culinary rosemary and is not used in cooking.
Mature plants reach 1.5 to 2 metres tall and 1.5 to 2 metres wide. It clips readily to smaller dimensions and is often maintained at around a metre as a hedge or a low mound. Growth is moderate, roughly 30 to 60 centimetres a year, so it holds a trimmed shape well.
It is one of the best shrubs available for exposed coastal work. It grows naturally on sea cliffs and copes with salt laden wind, sand and reflected heat. It is used constantly on beachfront reserves, dune stabilisation projects and seaside gardens where little else holds a tidy shape.
The main flush is spring and summer, roughly September through February, with scattered flowering at other times of the year in mild districts. The flowers are small, white to pale lilac and sit among the foliage rather than above it. Clipped hedges flower less than plants left to grow informally.
Space plants 80 centimetres apart for a tight formal hedge, or 1 to 1.5 metres apart for a dense informal screen. On banks and batters used for erosion cover, 1 metre in a staggered grid gives full ground coverage within about two growing seasons.
Yes. A pot 40 to 50 centimetres wide suits a single plant for a courtyard, entry or balcony. Use a free draining mix, because the roots will not tolerate sitting wet. Container plants need watering more often than those in the ground, plus a light trim to hold their shape.
Trim lightly two or three times a year, taking the soft new growth and avoiding cuts into bare old wood, which reshoots poorly. Water through the first summer, then only in extended dry spells. On most soils it needs no feeding at all, and it resents heavy watering and poor drainage.
Westringia 'Wynyabbie Blue' is a hardy Australian native shrub grown for its lilac blue flowers, which are larger and more freely carried than those of the common white forms. Narrow grey green leaves sit in neat whorls on a dense rounded frame that holds its shape through the year.
Expect 1.5 to 2 metres in height and width at maturity, at 30 to 60 centimetres a year. Full sun brings the heaviest flowering, though part shade is accepted. Drainage matters above everything else, after which it takes salt wind, sandy or gravelly ground, drought and light to moderate frost.
Mass plantings on batters, median strips and coastal frontages are where it earns its keep, and it clips into a low hedge of about a metre without losing its flowering. Plant 1 to 1.5 metres apart for an informal screen. One plant fills a 40 to 50 centimetre pot neatly.
About Wynyabbie Blue Coastal Rosemary
Westringia 'Wynyabbie Blue' is a hardy Australian native shrub grown for its lilac blue flowers, which are larger and more freely carried than those of the common white forms. Narrow grey green leaves sit in neat whorls on a dense rounded frame. It is evergreen and holds its structure all year.
It reaches 1.5 to 2 metres tall and 1.5 to 2 metres wide at maturity, growing 30 to 60 centimetres a year. It clips comfortably to around a metre if you want a lower hedge, and it will hold that height indefinitely given two or three light trims a year.
From spring right through autumn, roughly September to May, with sporadic flowers in winter in mild districts. The lilac blue flowers open in flushes rather than all at once, so there is usually some colour on the plant. Flowering is heaviest in full sun on lean, well drained soil.
Yes. Once the roots are established it needs very little water and copes with extended dry periods, which is why it is used on unirrigated median strips and road verges. Drainage matters more than watering, since the plant will die in soggy ground long before it dies of thirst.
It is. Salt laden wind, sandy soils and reflected heat are all handled, and it is planted routinely on foreshore reserves and beachside gardens. In very exposed frontal positions the plant stays lower and denser than it would inland, which generally suits the situation anyway.
Use 80 centimetres between plants for a clipped formal hedge, or 1 to 1.5 metres for a dense informal screen. For mass planting on banks and median strips, 1 metre in a staggered pattern gives full coverage within about two growing seasons and shades out most weeds.
Trim lightly after each flowering flush, taking soft growth only. Cutting back into bare old wood leaves gaps that will not fill in, so stay on top of it rather than letting it get away. Water through the first summer, then rarely. Avoid rich soils and heavy fertiliser.
