This Aloe species is from the Western Cape Province of South Africa, particularly in the southern coastal region that has a winter-rainfall regime. The leaves have a variety of shapes and spination but are grey-green. The species is proliferous, eventually forming a cluster of rosettes, and the flowers are various shades of red. We grow this species in the ground in Tucson, where it is reasonably frost hardy. We offer seedlings of this species in 5-inch pots.
