Aloe striata ‘Coral Aloe’

This beautiful solitary succulent has flat broad pale green-grey leaves that vary in color depending on the amount of sunlight. In full sun the foliage is pinkish, in the shade more bluish green. The leaves have notable dark narrow lines running longitudinally and toothless pale reddish leaf margins.

Coral Aloe grows to about 12-18 inches in height and 2 feet in width; rosettes form at the base eventually showing 2-foot stems and flat-topped clusters of vibrant coral-orange flowers.

Plant in full sun to light shade in well-drained soil, irrigate little to regularly though quite tolerant of dry conditions; also use Aloe striata in small scale ground cover or edging for succulent rock gardens and makes a great patio container.
