Mangave 'Lavender Lady'
Mangave 'Lavender' is a unique succulent hybrid, born from the union of Manfreda and Agave. This refined beauty boasts broad, fleshy leaves in a mesmerising array of colours, ranging from smoky purpleand aging to a two tone green. The foliage is adorned with burgundy purple spots.
With a compact rosette form, 'Lavender Lady' typically grows to about 8-10 inches tall and 16-18 inches wide. Its leaves are relatively soft for an Agave relative, lacking the sharp terminal spines of its ancestors, these feel more like a comb. This makes it more gardener-friendly while still maintaining a bold, architectural presence in any setting. The plant's colour intensifies with increased sun exposure, though it appreciates some afternoon shade in hotter climates.
Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance, Mangave 'Lavender Lady' is ideal for rock gardens, containers, or as a standout specimen plant. Its unique appearance and easy care requirements make it a favourite among succulent enthusiasts and those seeking a touch of the exotic in their gardens or indoor spaces.
