Description

This incredibly drought-tolerant plant grows into a dense mound 1' to 2' high and wide and has steel-blue foliage. Spikes of orange red flowers appear in winter and early spring. Hummingbirds love the flowers. It does well in full and part sun, even in desert areas. This Aloe looks great in containers or in mass plantings.

Water Saving Tip:

Mulching and adding compost to soil can minimize evaporation and help soil absorb and store water.
