xMangave 'Desert Dragon' is the latest Walters Gardens creation that combines the genes of an astounding four agave species, Agave geminiflora, macroacantha, gypsophila ssp. pablocarrilloi, and attenuata, with the red spotting from a willing manfreda. The result is a 5" tall x 19" wide xmangave that looks like a drug-induced hallucination of a giant spider. The thick, grey-green "legs" are heavily patterned with giant liver-colored spots.
