Aloe aristata (Lace aloe)


Aloe aristata (Lace aloe) (Aloe aristata)

Delighted to see the first ever flowers on this plant. It has bright orange /yellow flowers. I added the extra blown up versions of the flower to show this. Said to be hardy to -14deg in UK but more often treated as a houseplant.

It is very pretty. The stem is about 10" tall and the flowers are approx. 1" long. I love the little feet peeping out from below the slinky gown.
