Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Aloe harlana is a stemless, evergreen succulent with a striking aesthetic. Its flat, wide dark green leaves are semi-glossy and marked with white to lime stripes in an attractive linear pattern. Growing up to 3 feet tall, this slow-growing plant features brown teeth and a short stem rarely producing offsets. Its conical racemes of red-orange or yellow flowers emerge in spring on a 2 to 3 foot bloom stalk.
