    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Aloe 'Pink Blush' is a unique and highly decorative dwarf aloe hybrid that grows up to 1 foot tall and 8-12 inches wide. With its textured, dark green and light green leaves with raised pink ridges, it adds an eye-catching touch to any garden. This hybrid is drought-tolerant, blooming with orange flowers from late winter to spring. It can be planted in full sun to light shade in a well-drained soil and irrigated occasionally to regularly. Ideal for garden containers or as a summer accent, it is best to bring it indoors to overwinter in colder climates. This Kelly Griffin hybrid is known for its excellent color and being in constant bloom.

    This plant has been grown in a 4" pot. You will receive a very similar plant to the one in the picture. The plant is shipped "dry-root" (without soil).

    Aloe ‘Pink Blush’ displays rosettes of lance-shaped, light green to peach pink succulent leaves heavily covered in cream-colored, vertical striations. This variety likes to offset profusely, creating a massing clump. The toothed leaf edges will glow an even bolder peach-pink color when happily stressed. Produces orange, tubular flowers on stalks. Ideal in landscapes and containers or can adapt as a houseplant. Provide a well-drained soil away from reflected heat. Once established, water infrequently during the hot season. Protect your PRINCE OF PARADISE™ plant from frost!

    This is one of the nicest Kelly Griffin hybrids, genetically a witch's brew, including some Madagascar species of aloe. The raised bumps on the leaves, combined with the reddish cast, make for a highly attractive, compact hybrid. Pink hue to the skin in good, bright light!
