This wonderful accent plant has broad succulent leaves with a silvery-gray hue dotted with large, dark maroon spots. It will tolerate partial shade but does quite well in full sun too! Each plant will be about 2 feet tall by 1.5 to 2 feet wide. Manfreda will tend to bloom after reaching full size producing a rapidly growing stalk in early summer to 5 to 6 feet tall. The tiny lily-like flowers are quite interesting. Plants will slowly decline and die after blooming, but they usually produce several to many pups before expiring.
