Mangave 'Praying Hands' is a spectacular and rare variety, resulting from the cross between Agave and Manfreda , with an absolutely unique natural design. The plant is distinguished by its narrow, rigid and upward-curving leaves , arranged so tightly that they seem to form a gesture of "praying hands" - hence the name. The predominant color is a dark green with purple-red spots , which become more intense in direct light.
This Mangave has an architectural look, perfect for modern decors, exotic-looking gardens or as an accent piece in decorative pots. In addition to its unusual aesthetics, it is also a very drought-resistant plant with minimal maintenance requirements.
