Kaleidoscope plant full#

Mangave 'Kaleidoscope' is a uninduced vegetative sport of Mangave 'Jaguar' that occurred in the Walters Gardens tissue culture laboratory in 2013 and was introduced by them in 2016. With its bright colors and arching habit of foliage this plant makes a very nice container specimen and the flowers are attractive to hummingbirds. Has proven hardy down into the mid 20s and listed by some as good down to USDA Zone 8a but hardiness has not really been well tested on this plant.

A very attractive looking plant with the amazing colors that is best heightened in bright light to full sun when the reddish margins blend into an orange color in the yellow bands - just sensational! Plant in full to part sun in a well-drained soil and irrigate occasionally.

Mature plants flower (but do not perish like some agave) with tall 6-7 foot vertical spikes of lightly fragrant green flowers in summer. Overlaying the entire leaf surface are well spaced red spots. X Mangave 'Kaleidoscope' PP 28,614 - This very attractive fast growing evergreen plant grows to 18 to 2 inches tall by 2 to 3 feet wide in tight offsetting clumps of rosettes holding fleshy, narrow, lance-shaped leaves with denticulate (toothed) edges that arch outward and slightly down with yellow bands along a thin red margin and a narrow band of light green between the margin the darker olive green leaf center.
