From central Namibia, this species spans the region between winter- and summer-dominated rainfall. It can be difficult to grow in Tucson, so we try to keep the larger plants pot bound and do not grow this species in the ground. It is related to Aloe variegata, and has the same color and spotting on the leaves, but the leaves of A. dinteri are longer and not as succulent as in A. variegata. The flowers are smaller but are also red and bloom mid-summer. These plants are seedlings in 4-inch pots.
