The Mangave 'Purple People Eater'

  •   Mangave 'Purple People Eater' is a stunning drought tolerant succulent that combines the best traits of agave and manfreda in one spectacular hybrid. This agave hybrid brings together the architectural structure of agave with the softer, more colorful characteristics of manfreda, creating a unique xeriscaping plant that's both striking and resilient.

      The Mangave 'Purple People Eater' forms gorgeous rosettes of thick, succulent leaves decorated with distinctive purple spotting that gives this plant its memorable name. Each leaf displays a blue-green base color overlaid with dramatic purple-burgundy spots and speckles, creating an almost otherworldly appearance. The spotted succulent grows in a compact, symmetrical rosette pattern with slightly curved leaves that have gentle teeth along the margins, making it a true architectural plant that commands attention.

      Mangave 'Purple People Eater' may produce tall flower spikes with tubular blooms, though flowering is infrequent and typically occurs only on mature specimens. This outdoor plant handles balcony wind and rain well during summer months, though it needs cover from rain during winter dormancy to prevent root rot.

      This low maintenance plant makes an excellent container plant for collectors seeking something truly special - it's definitely a rare collector find rather than your everyday succulent. Mangave 'Purple People Eater' can move outside for summer adventures and survives a 10-day trip alone, showing when thirsty through subtle leaf changes. Keep this architectural beauty on a high shelf out of reach since cats and dogs shouldn't be left to nibble the plant, and it's best placed away from small children due to potential sap irritation.

  •   Mangave 'Purple People Eater' thrives in direct sun to low-light conditions but scorches in south-facing windows.

      Water Mangave 'Purple People Eater' deeply but infrequently, allowing soil to dry completely between waterings.

      Mangave 'Purple People Eater' grows best in well-draining cactus or succulent soil with excellent drainage.

      Mangave 'Purple People Eater' tolerates temperatures from 50-85°F (10-29°C) and handles drafty spots well.

      Mangave 'Purple People Eater' grows slowly and needs minimal fertilizer - feed sparingly in spring with diluted succulent fertilizer.

      Mangave 'Purple People Eater' thrives in USDA hardiness zones 8-11 and tolerates brief frosts down to 20°F (-7°C). This makes it suitable for outdoor cultivation across much of the southern United States, including Florida, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina, North Carolina (coastal), Tennessee (southern), Arkansas (southern), and Hawaii. The plant also grows well in protected microclimates along the Oregon and Washington coasts where temperatures stay within its preferred range.
  • Q: How often should I water my Mangave 'Purple People Eater'?
    A: Water every 2-3 weeks in summer and monthly or less in winter, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings. The plant will show slight leaf softening when it needs water.


    Q: Can Mangave 'Purple People Eater' handle full sun outdoors?
    A: Yes, this full sun succulent loves direct outdoor sun and can spend summers outside. Just avoid intense south-facing windows indoors where it may scorch.


    Q: Is Mangave 'Purple People Eater' safe around pets and children?
    A: This plant should be kept out of reach of pets and small children as the sap can cause skin irritation and cats and dogs shouldn't nibble the leaves.


    Q: How fast does Mangave 'Purple People Eater' grow?
    A: This is a slow-growing succulent that maintains its compact size for years. It's perfect for those who want a low-maintenance plant that won't quickly outgrow its space.


    Q: Can I leave my Mangave 'Purple People Eater' alone when traveling?
    A: Absolutely - this drought tolerant succulent easily survives 10+ days without water. It's an ideal plant for frequent travelers or busy plant parents.


    Q: Where should I place my Mangave 'Purple People Eater' indoors?
    A: Keep it away from AC vents and heaters, though it tolerates dry heated air better than most plants. A bright spot with good air circulation works best.

Good value for the money.

Comfortable right out of the box. Great style and well made. The more you wear the softer they get but maintain their overall appearance.

Comfortable fit for slip-in fabric shoes
Size: 14, Color: Black/Black
My first experience with Marc Joseph. I typically purchase dress and casual work shoes from Florsheim and occasionally Rockport. I'm giving these four stars because the initial fit and feel appear solid. Depending on the shoe brand I wear a size 14 or 15. My feet are slightly wide but I don't alway need wide fit. These size 14 fit well with wide enough toe box. I've tried slip in shoes before and they just don't feel right. These somehow work and there is no heel slip. My only reservation is the high lip on the heel for slip-in and hope they dont catch pant hems. I gave 4 stars because I'll have to determine durability. Granted they are a light fabric shoe with a soft rubber tread. I'd like them to last for at least 6 months..and use them for business casual work wear during warm weather.
