Mangave 'Frosted Elegance'
DESCRIPTION
Introducing the magnificent Mangave 'Frosted Elegance', a hybrid marvel that combines the best features of the Manfreda and Agave. This exquisite succulent hails from a lineage renowned for its robust and ornamental qualities, making it a perfect addition to any succulent collection. 'Frosted Elegance' stands out with its wide, spiky leaves that are a soft blue-green, dusted with a silver overlay that seems to shimmer in the light, giving it an almost frosted appearance.
What truly sets 'Frosted Elegance' apart are the delicate red speckles that adorn its leaves, creating a stunning contrast against the frosty backdrop. This succulent will typically reach up to 12 inches in height and width, forming an elegant, compact rosette that is both striking and easy to manage. Ideal for containers, rock gardens, or as a solitary specimen, it's a versatile plant that adds a touch of sophistication wherever it resides.
Though 'Frosted Elegance' is relatively low maintenance, it thrives best in well-draining soil and with plenty of sunlight, which intensifies its unique coloring. While it is a slow grower, its architectural form and texture make it a captivating addition from the start. And, when the conditions are just right, it may surprise you with tall, slender spikes of burgundy flowers, adding yet another layer of visual interest to this already stunning plant.
Whether you're a seasoned succulent collector or new to the world of these resilient plants, Mangave 'Frosted Elegance' is sure to impress with its unique beauty and elegant stature, making it a must-have for anyone looking to enhance their garden or indoor space with a touch of frosty sophistication.
PLANT SIZING & APPEARANCE
Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
