Mangave Desert Dragon PP 31311 Aristolochia butter-yellow leaves form a beautifulxMangave 'Desert Dragon' is the latest Walters Gardens creation that combines the genes of an astounding four agave species, Agave geminiflora, macroacantha, gypsophila ssp. pablocarrilloi, and attenuata, with the red spotting from a willing manfreda. The result is a 5" tall x 19" wide xmangave that looks like a drug induced hallucination of a giant spider. The thick, grey green "legs" are heavily patterned with giant liver colored spots.
