MAD ABOUT MANGAVE® Collection
The stunning color of ‘Silver Fox’ is not what one would 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 color. Light blue-purple spotting appears underneath the coating but is mostly unnoticeable from a distance. In addition to its exceptional color ‘Silver Fox’ has a magnificent habit.
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.
