Plant of the Month

Plant of the Month: Star Fish Aloe

Aloe cameronii
STAR FISH ALOE

This is a crazy, fantastic plant with leaves that can turn completely red, especially in the winter, or when dry. Its color is best contrasted against lush green succulents, or soft, verdant green ornamental grasses to really bring out the maximum contrast and complimentary color. Grows to 2.5 feet tall by 3 feet wide. If the leaves weren't colorful enough, then maybe the brilliant spikes of orange flowers in the dead of winter will do it for you! Full sun; water-wise. Hardy to the mid 20s.
