This former species has been lumped into one of the common maculate Aloes from southern Africa. From the vicinity of Barberton, South Africa, this species generally 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. We don?t know how hardy this species is but we suggest it can easily take the 23F without damage that others in this group can take. These plants are seedlings in 5-inch pots.
