Aloe 'Orange Beauty' - A beautiful large shrubby aloe that has recurved green leaves and light orange flowers on a branched inflorescence in mid winter. Plant in full sun in a well drained soil and irrigate occasionally to infrequenty. We are not sure yet how big this plant will get but it looks to have Aloe arborescens in it so expect it to be pretty good size. This extremely beautiful aloe was selected and named by San Marcos Growers as a seedling from an open pollinated Aloe maculata hybrid. The seed was collected in 2011 from seed one of the nursery's Aloe maculata 'Aurea' stock plants.
The information that is presented on this page is based on research we have conducted about this plant in our library and from reliable online sources. We also consider observations we have made of it in the nursery's garden and in other gardens we have visited, as well how it performs in our nursery crops out in the field. We incorporate comments that we receive from others as well and welcome getting feedback from anyone who may have additional information, particularly if they know of cultural information that would aid others in growing Aloe 'Orange Beauty'. |
