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 on this page is based on research conducted in our nursery library and from online sources as well as from observations made of this plant as it grows in our nursery, in the nursery's garden and in other gardens that we have observed it in. We also will incorporate comments received from others and always appreciate getting feedback of any kind from those who have additional information, particularly if this information is contrary to what we have written or includes additional cultural tips that might aid others in growing Aloe 'Orange Beauty'.
