Mangave 'Electric Cheetah' PPAF
MAD ABOUT MANGAVE® Collection
Common Name: Mangave
Everything about this succulent is electric: from its wavy leaves to the pattern on the leaves. Clear, pronounced dark spotting appears on uniquely colored foliage. An iridescent blue sheen appears over green leaves. The spots are more lavender under the sheen. Like 'Crazy Cowlick', this plant will produce a low, horizontal habit with wide wavy leaves. Orange marginal spines are most intense in color near the crown. This is a great plant to use in a dry landscape!
Mangave is a relatively new phenomenon, as a cross between the genus Manfreda and Agave. These rare hybrids combine the best of both worlds: the better growth rate and the interesting patterns of Manfreda, and the habit and refinement of Agave. We are very excited about our new hybrids from Walters Gardens, Inc. hybridizing. Growers will appreciate the fast growth rate of Mangave-these hybrids finish more quickly than Agave, thanks to their Manfreda parentage. Look to the future for more interesting and unique looks to join the collection!
