The blue-green leaves and multi-colored spines of the Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy make this succulent a real winner. Known botanically as Mangave hybrid 'Tooth Fairy', this succulent is fast growing and will form a single rosette of around 1 foot tall. It is perfect for growing as a perennial in southern areas or overwintering as a houseplant.
Being both drought and heat tolerant, the Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy is easy to grow in the right conditions. Happy either in a container or when planted in the ground, its spiny leaves will certainly create a focal point. Growing slightly wider than it does high, the Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy is a North American native and winter hardy in zones 9 to 11.
Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy Mangave Care
Full sun is favorable for the Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy to thrive and produce the best foliage colors. More tolerant of overwatering than other succulents, you can even speed up its growth by irrigating more frequently. Plant it in a free-draining soil, and fertilize it at half the label strength during the summer months. Pruning is not required; however, if any leaves wilt or turn brown, you can remove them at the base.
The Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy can be grown as a perennial in zones 9 to 11. In other zones, you can grow it as an annual or bring it indoors to overwinter.
Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy Mangave Spacing
Over time, the Art & Sol™ Tooth Fairy can grow to 10 to 12 inches tall and 16 to 18 inches wide. Multiple plants can be spaced 16 to 18 inches apart. For container growing, choose a pot that is slightly wider than the rosette's current size.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
