Buy Mangave 'Praying Hands' in Australia online

The Mangave ‘Praying Hands’ is basically a low growing succulent that has an interesting shape and excellent hue. Its name – Praying Hands – explains the form of the plant well – slim, tall blades of leaves, which look like hands clasped in prayer. The leaves are thick, fleshy with green color with a fine grain and dotted with bluish shades, which appear pronounced in sunlight. It should however be noted that this variety does not have spines on the edges and as such it is attractive and safe to handle.

This succulent is a cross between the Agave and Manfreda genera, inheriting the best traits from both: the aesthetics of the structure of the Agave and short germination of the Manfreda. Mangave ‘Praying Hands’ has a mature size of 60 cm (24 in) tall by 45 cm (18 in) wide, so it is excellent for garden borders or potted and container gardens or as a focal plant for succulent gardens. It requires soil with good drainage and requires full to partial sun, allowing it to grow both indoor and outdoor. As with most varieties of succulent plants it prefers to be watered occasionally and resists drying out.

Key Features:

  • Unique Form: Its symmetrical arrangement of leaves resembles clasped hands in prayer, creating a striking and meditative focal point in any garden or container.

  • Compact Size: Maintains a manageable size of 10 inches tall and wide, making it perfect for pots, rock gardens, or even as a tabletop accent.

  • Eye-Catching Color: Its dark green leaves are adorned with maroon spotting and reddish-brown terminal spines that almost touch at the top, adding a touch of drama and intrigue.

  • Low Maintenance: Agave 'Praying Hands' is remarkably easy to care for, requiring only well-draining soil, occasional watering, and ample sunlight to thrive.

  • Drought-Tolerant: With its hardy nature and succulent properties, it is well-suited to arid climates and periods of drought.

Care Tips:

  • Sunlight: Place in full sun to partial shade for optimal growth and color development.

  • Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix to prevent root rot.

  • Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.

Add a Touch of Serenity to Your Collection:

Mangave 'Praying Hands' is not just a plant; it's a symbol of tranquility and resilience. Its unique form and low-maintenance nature make it a must-have addition for any succulent enthusiast or anyone seeking a touch of the divine in their garden.
