Description
The collection consists of 4 plants:
- x 1 Mangave Mangave 'Redwing': compact, its rosette reaches 25 cm (10in) in height by 40 cm (16in) in width. It forms a beautiful rosette of large leaves strongly colored deep red-purple on a discreet green background.
- x 1 Mangave Mangave 'Pineapple Express': a low and wide variety, in a rosette of 20 to 30 cm (8 to 12in) in height by 50-60 cm (20-24in) in width. Its foliage is nicely speckled with purple on a greenish-blue background.
- x 1 Mangave Mangave 'Lavender Lady': very compact, measuring 20 cm (8in) in height by 30 cm (12in) in width, this variety presents foliage that evolves from finely powdered almond green to dark gray.
- x 1 Mangave Mangave 'Mission To Mars': forming a low and very wide rosette (25 cm (10in) in height by 70 cm (28in) in width), this selection offers a deeply maculated color of purple-red on a green background.
The Mangave Mangave belongs to the family Agavaceae, now included by botanists in the much larger family Asparagaceae. This plant develops quite rapidly into a rosette composed of numerous succulent leaves. Depending on the varieties, the leaves are more or less narrow, rigid or slightly arched, tapering to a point and toothed along the edge. Flowering will appear in favorable climates on mature plants from August to October. From the center of the rosette emerges a branched flower stem bearing small white star-shaped flowers. Mangave Mangave are plants for dry, well-drained soil, capable of withstanding short frosts of about -5 to -7°C (23 to 19.4°F) depending on the varieties. They should be planted in full sun or at most in partial shade in hot climates. The foliage persists in winter.
To create exotic and colorful scenes in mild climates, the Mangave should be planted in a rockery, in the company of other small agaves such as Agave montana, other differently colored Mangaves, purple creeping bugles, Black Beauty heucheras, or grasses such as Carex comans Milk Chocolate or Stipa tenuifolia. Collectors of cacti and other succulent plants can showcase it on the terrace or balcony by surrounding it with pots filled with houseleeks.

Planting and care
Install Mangave preferably in full sun or partial shade. Plant it in a well-drained soil, even poor, rocky or sandy: it tolerates winter moisture and cold poorly, but a little better in a dry soil. It is therefore strongly recommended to grow this plant in a pot in humid and cold regions indoors over winter. As it adapts perfectly to dry soils, even arid in summer, it can be installed in a rock garden or on a rocky slope in coastal gardens or mild climates, where frost does not go below -6°C (21.2°F) at its lowest point.
Since the plant has modest growth, it can easily be cultivated in a pot on the terrace or balcony, in a lightweight substrate such as cactus soil, with careful drainage, preferably in terracotta. Water regularly in summer, but allow the substrate to dry between waterings. It will then be easy to store the pot away from strong frosts and humidity, in a bright, well-ventilated, minimally heated space. Reduce or even stop watering in winter. The plant can spend from April to October, outdoors.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
