Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant is a hybrid obtained by crossing × Mangave 'Jaguar' and × Mangave 'Bloodspot'. It forms a dense rosette that externally resembles a pineapple crown. At maturity, it reaches 22–30 cm in height and 40–60 cm in width.

The leaves are sword-shaped, dark green with spots that become brighter in sunlight, and can be covered with a mint-green waxy bloom. The leaf margins are decorated with soft teeth, and a sharp cinnamon-colored terminal spine is located at the tip.

The species is thermophilic and withstands temperature drops down to -5 °C. The plant is used in container gardening, rock gardens, and as part of succulent arrangements. Improper watering may lead to rot; pests may include mealybugs and scale insects.
