| Other Details: Only recently discovered (botanically that is) in the mid 1980's in Namibia, it seems strange that such an impressive plant could have remained unknown for so long. Fortunately for collectors, enough seed was collected and distributed in the early 1990's that a reasonable number of plants now exist in cultivation. These early specimens are now flowering size and since propagation is by seed, as it seldom offsets, one can sometimes find it for sale
Growth is very slow, especially for an aloe. It's a true gem |
