      Not just a 90's trend but a lovely bi-generic cross between Manfreda and Agave by plantsman Hans Hansen. The stout gray-blue rosettes of triangular leaves peppered with red flecks creating and almost kaleidoscope effect. USDA zone 9. Excellent contianer plant. Unauthorized Propagation Prohibited.
