We love Carex buchananii

so we have sacrificed our clump to our propagator

Mangave Black Magic PP 34692 Pennisetum upright foliage(aka: Mangave 16 36 7) xMangave 'Black Magic' is a 2020 Walters Gardens introduction that's the darkest black purple mangave to date, due to the massive number of large merging purple spots. The 10" tall x 2' wide clumps of this Agave colorata hybrid are composed of long, pointed, downward arching leaves stunning in a container or in the ground in mild winter climates. Unlike agaves, mangaves do not die after flowering.
