Symbolism:
The century plant is an iconic plant found in the north american desert. They are a common landscaping plant around parts of Arizona and each spring it's a surprise to see which plants will be sending up a flower.
The century plant is the kind of plant that lives for one hundred years, and upon its death, sends up the most glorious, beautiful flower. It is a death bloom. Once the flower is mature it sends out thousands of seeds in the hope that the life cycle begins again. And once the flower is all dried up, the agave is dead, using its final act to reproduce and keep the species going.
Century plants represent the cycles of death and rebirth. They make something so incredible out of their final moments. Their leaves are also used to create the spirit Tequila. I'm sure we are all familiar with the popular Mexican liquor. A mild stimulant that usually fosters a good time. The spirit of the plant is one of fun, resilience, and stunning beauty.
