Notes
'Inkblot' mangave (Mangave 'Inkblot') is a succulent for borders, containers, and low maintenance gardens. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 9 and warmer, down to about 20°F (-7°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. It is evergreen and drought tolerant, so it needs little care once settled.
Pairs well with Narrow-leaf chalksticks, Elijah Blue blue fescue, and Stonecrop.
