Mangave 'Silver Fox' is a stunning and exceptional variety in a colour that you wouldn't expect to see in a Mangave!
Just like the White fur of a Silver Fox, this succulent glows nearly White when you first glance at it. In reality, it's more of a light Green covered with a thick waxy coating to give it that glowing colour. Light Blue-Purple spotting appears underneath the coating, but is mostly unnoticeable from a distance. In addition to its wonderful colour, 'Silver Fox' has a magnificent habit, with thick, arching leaves and defined marginal teeth.
Mangave is a relatively new phenomenon, an intergeneric cross of Manfreda x 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.
Everyone will appreciate the fast growth rate of Mangave - these hybrids finish more quickly than Agave, thanks to their Manfreda parentage.
Look out in the future for more interesting and unique Mangave to join the collection!
