Meet Mangave 'Permanent Wave' [plug], a stunning hybrid succulent that combines the best traits of Agave and Manfreda plants. This rare architectural plant originated from careful breeding to create a drought tolerant succulent with exceptional garden performance.
Mangave 'Permanent Wave' [plug] forms striking rosettes of thick, silvery-green leaves with dramatic wavy edges that give this plant its distinctive name. The fleshy leaves display beautiful silver markings and a powdery bloom that creates an almost metallic appearance. Each rosette grows in a compact, symmetrical form that showcases the plant's architectural qualities.
This rare succulent produces tall flower spikes with tubular blooms, though flowering typically occurs after several years of maturity. Mangave 'Permanent Wave' [plug] can move outside for summer growing and tolerates dry heated air better than many houseplants. The plant needs cover from rain when grown outdoors and is sensitive to AC and heater air when kept indoors.
Mangave 'Permanent Wave' [plug] makes an excellent specimen for collectors seeking rare plants with easy care requirements. This drought tolerant succulent can stay outdoors in autumn in warmer zones and survives 10-day trips alone, making it perfect for busy plant lovers. The architectural form works beautifully in modern containers or desert-style gardens.
