Description

This large Aloe can be found growing wild all over South Africa and Lesotho.

Its tall flower stalks, of bright orange and burnt red inflorescence resembles a hot poker.

Given enough time, it will form a trunk raising itself up to 3 metres about the ground.

The gel-like sap from the leaves is known to relieve stinging and burning sensations on the skin.

This variety will grow well in warm temperate climates and will tolerate light freezes.
