flora-file: xMangave ’Bloodspot’ Currently, this plant is considered an intergeneric hybrid between Manfreda and Agave. The two genera are both new world flora and hybridize readily. So readily, in fact, that the two genera may actually be a single genus. As for now, there are crazy new xMangave hybrids appearing with regularity, and their habits and limitations are still being discovered. This cultivar is very Agave-like in appearance, with dangerous spines and extra pokey leaf tips. With its pale complexion and contrasting cranberry spots, this plant is basically pointy eye candy. Also, its relatively compact size makes it convenient for containers and smaller gardens. The origin of this hybrid is believed to possibly be Agave macroacantha x Manfreda maculosa.
