I have a huge agave plant which hasn't bloomed yet but it is dying. The leaves are turning yellow, then brown. down in the center of the agave you can see yellow leaves. Is there anything to do to save this beautiful agave?

Your agave has probably been attacked by the agave snout weevil. Once the leaves begin turning brown there is not much you can do to save it. I reccomend removing the dying agave and then treating the same area with insecticide granuals for killing agave snout weevils.
