aloe photo gallery 1 A-H
Here are photos of aloes that are easy to grow
|
Aloes are succulent plants that need very little
water with little maintanance for the aloe garden |
| Combine aloes and other succulent and/or caudiciform plants for a
water saving, xeriscape and low maintanance aloe garden |
| A.framesii is the only aloe on this page that comes from
the winter rainfall area along the western coast. It is sensitive
to frost. |
| Although all the other aloe species are from the summer rainfall area,
the aloes adjusted to our winter rainfall without a problem. |
| Having said that, we do not get frost. Frost on aloes in wet
conditions are very bad - very few will survive. |
| Keep in mind that A. asperiflora is a desert aloe from Namibia and it
should be kept dry with minimum water. |
| All succulent plants need good drainage and all on this page need basic
soil. |
| It is easy to cultivate these aloes in normal garden growing
conditions. |
| Watch out for any sign of ants. They carry
the aphids into the rosette and that is a very quick way to loose an aloe to rot. |
