Henequen Plants.

Henequen Plants.

Henequen was named "The green gold", due to the great economic value it created during a long long time.

This are the plants of Henequen. a species of agave, in green color.

The big leaves(pencas) are cut and let dry a bit. After that they are passed to pressing machines that would extract all the liquid of the leaves, leaving at the end the fibers.

The fibers are the transported to hanging places where they are left for days to dry. Its then when the fiber is ready
