Description
Silver Fox mangave grows a neat rosette of silvery-green leaves edged with pale yellow teeth. It matures around 12 inches tall and 18 inches wide. Established plants may eventually send up tall stalks of lavender-and-white flowers; the flowering rosette can decline while offsets continue growing.
Growing Mangave, Silver Fox in Alabama
Give Silver Fox plenty of light and a gritty, fast-draining potting mix. Water thoroughly once the soil has dried, then allow the pot to drain completely. Avoid wet feet during Alabama’s humid summers and especially during winter. Grow it in a container that can be moved to a bright, frost-free location before freezing weather.
