Introducing Mangave 'Navajo Princess,' a distinguished member of the MAD ABOUT MANGAVE® collection. This succulent tender perennial has a lush basal rosette adorned with wide, rigid, semi-fleshy foliage. The lanceolate leaves boast striking variegation with creamy margins that transition from deep blue-green centers. Each leaf has delicate marginal teeth and subtle greyed-purple spots near the base, which become even more clear under the glow of ultraviolet light.
Mangave is a remarkable intergeneric fusion of Manfreda and Agave, combining the best of both plants. 'Navajo Princess' exhibits a compact, low-horizontal growth habit and maintains a steady growth rate. It?s a great choice for rock gardens, alpine landscapes, waterwise gardens, or xeriscapes. Also popular as a versatile container plant, it?s suitable for both indoor and outdoor settings. In areas with harsh winters, ensure the plant is relocated indoors and kept at temperatures above 60°F.
For optimal growth, provide your Mangave with a sunny spot and well-drained soil that ranges from dry to average in moisture content. While young plants appreciate moderate watering, it's essential to avoid excessively wet or extremely dry conditions. Once established, these hardy plants are drought tolerant and should be allowed to remain slightly dry during the winter months. Mangave is resistant to deer and rabbit damage.
