This common species from southern Africa is a maculate Aloe with triangular leaves that tend to have withered tips. What makes this species distinctive is that it does not usually clump, unlike A. greatheadii var. davyana, and it flowers in winter in Tucson, although the flowers are a washed-out pink color. The plant is extremely hardy, having taken 23F without damage (except to flower panicles). These plants are seedlings in 5-inch pots.
