Mangave 'Bad Hair Day'
Mangave 'Bad Hair Day' PP30279
No one wants a 'Bad Hair Day', except for this one! These zone 7 hardy Mangaves feature narrow, long yucca-like dark green leaves with tiny burgundy spots. In full sun, cooler temperatures or drought, the leaves turn into a kaleidoscope of different colors. Mangaves are a rare intergeneric cross between Manfreda and Agave which allows them to grow twice as fast as typical Agaves and makes them extremely adaptable to all climates as indoor/outdoor plants. Softer longer leaves and adaptability to moisture or drought make them perfect companion plants to other succulents, perennials or annuals. No teeth or spines provides a more tropical feel. Great for container gardens. Easy to grow & fun to collect!
Exposure Full to part sun (more sun = more intense colors)
Grows to 1-1.5 feet high x 2 feet wide
Hardiness Zone 7b-11 (all zones as houseplants)
*Plants ship bare root* Why bare root?

DOMESTIC USA SHIPPING
Our horticulture experts will determine if the plant needs to be shipped in soil, based on the particular species, size, and your hardiness zone. In general, agaves, cacti, and succulents will be shipped without soil, called “bare root.” (see below) We will find the best freight carrier to your address. While our top priority is a healthy, happy plant delivery, unfortunately, we have no control over how carriers handle our packages, nor where they are dropped off.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
All plants shipped beyond the USA mainland, including Alaska and Puerto Rico, will be shipped “bare root.” (see below) All plants shipped internationally, including Puerto Rico, require a Phytosanitary Certificate from the US Department of Agriculture.

Please check with your local customs department to see if you need any additional certifications, such as import permits. Note: while we have extensive experience and a track record of successful international plant shipments, we are unable to guarantee the plants' condition upon arrival.
BARE ROOT SHIPPING
