Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Safari Orange Aloe, a captivating mid-sized clustering aloe, features upwardly inclined gray-green leaves reaching around 3 feet in height and slightly wider spread. As winter approaches, it unveils numerous unbranched inflorescences with brilliant orange, narrow flowers. The blooms, starting as dark buds and gradually lightening from the bottom, adorn 2-foot-long stems. This aloe is a first-year bloomer, adding an exciting burst of color to your garden. Resilient against temperatures of 20-30°F
