Mangave 'Snow Leopard' is a variegated form which has the long, lance-shaped leaves of the parent (Mangave 'Jaguar') but with creamy White margins.
Some Cherry Red spotting exists along the margins, but the bright variegation appears clear from a distance. Compared to 'Kaleidoscope', this has White margins (versus Yellow) and dark spots cover the leaves and are Pink when on the margin. UV light enhances the spots.
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!
