Make the striking plants of the Sonoran Desert part of your outdoor décor with the addition of Blue Agave Tiki Torches from Desert Steel. Handcrafted by talented metal sculptors, this desert plant is as close to real as you can get without transplanting. A delightful outdoor sculpture, this yard art adds interest to your garden landscaping that you can enjoy all year round. Shaped from steel, the metal has been galvanized to protect it from the elements. A patina gives this metal art the colors of nature. The blue agave is a succulent with thick, pointed leaves that are filled with liquid (it is the main ingredient in tequila and other alcoholic drinks). Its greenish-gray leaves provide a wide base for the centerpiece, a thick stalk that reaches up from the middle of the plant and announces itself with bright blue flowers at the top. The plant takes its name from the colors of its flowers, not the color of the plant itself. This outdoor sculpture doubles as a torch for evenings spent grilling or hosting a cookout with friends and family. Use liquid mosquito repellent to fill the included canister and enjoy up to six hours of torch light with each refill. An extra-long, 10-inch wick is also included so you can keep using the torch for a long time. The cactus yard art requires minimal assembly. You can then stake it in the yard or garden, or use the included base to mount it to the patio.
