Pineapple Express Mangave
Published November 22, 2016
Pineapple Express is a cross between a manfreda and agave. This hybrid has dark spiky leaves with burgundy spots. The more sun this plant receives the burgundy spots will become more showy. With leaves 1" wide and tightly packed, it gives it a look of the top of a pineapple. Growing only 9-10" tall with a 16-18" spread, this plant will work on any patio or in a garden. This Managave can freeze, so it does best in a pot.
