Aloe Arborescens | 12cm Pot

An architectural succulent. Position: bright but indirect light Soil: good potting compost, well drained Rate of growth: slow Flowering period: early summer generally Hardiness: tender (indoors only) Current height: approximately 25cm (+ or – 10% including the pot) Pot cover: choose a 14cm pot cover to give a good fit over the pot In its native Africa, this stately succulent will form a sizeable clump made up of rosettes of slender green leaves, each with a short, toothed edge. When grown as a house plant, it stays smaller, but no less impressive – and in the right conditions, each rosette may also produce a bottle brush-like ‘poker’ of cylindrical red flowers. It’s a stylish and architectural gem. Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery pot). They do however make excellent potted plants, and if you wish to pot yours up, we do have a wide range of pots on our website to choose from. Home care: Water moderately when growing, and sparingly when dormant through the winter months. Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser 2-3 times during the growing season.
