Aloe dominella plant details
Aloe dominella is a deciduous perennial cactus / succulent with green foliage. In spring and winter yellow flowers emerge. Features grassy texture. Attracts beneficial insects and hummingbirds. Grows well with sun - mostly sun and occasional - low water. Drought tolerant once established. Prefers to be dry in winter, dry when dormant. Does well in gritty, lean, rocky and well-drained soil.
