Bloodspot Mangave forms a colorful rosette of attractively dappled foliage, staying compact enough to be excellent as a container plant. An intergeneric cross that may have originated in Japan, it is believed to have been made with Agave macroacantha x Manfreda maculosa. Like other Mangaves, we must look to its parentage to guess its tolerance of cold conditions. This particular cross suggests that it will be tolerant of heat and drought but requires protection from hard frost.
