There are 136 species of agave in Mexico, of which the blue agave - agave tequilana weber azul - is the only one allowed for use in tequila production.

Cacti & Succulent Care: Many people tend to think that cacti and succulents are too difficult to care for and decide against even buying them. Cacti and succulents will do quite well under the same conditions which would be considered neglect with other plants. Watering: The most common problem people have with cacti and succulent plants is overwatering. They are 'water storing' plants and will do better with less water than they will with more. Since every situation is considerably different, there is not set time interval for when to water cacti and succulents. It is preferable that they are kept in a warm bright location for the best results, and the most beautiful color.
