Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Also known as the Tororo Rock Aloe, this petite clustering aloe reaches about a foot in height. Its light blue-green leaves, adorned with white spots underneath, form open rosettes with prominent teeth along the edges. Freely flowering from early fall to winter, it produces glossy, red-orange blossoms on slender, upright racemes up to 18 inches tall. Originates from the Tororo district in southeastern Uganda.

This plant has been grown in a 2 ga pot. You will receive a very similar plant to the one in the picture. The plant is shipped "dry root" (without soil).
