Mangave Praying Hands PP 34508 Paris The frozen squid-like architectural rosettexMangave 'Praying Hands' is probably the most unique mangave we've had the pleasure of sharing. Created by Hans Hansen of Walters Gardens, this otherworldly Agave ocahui hybrid creates a small, very slow growing, 18" tall x 2' wide specimen with dark green leaves, edged with a narrow burgundy stripe. The rigid leaves arch upward, recurving toward the tip, creating a fascinating symmetrical rosette.
