Product Description

The Aloe citrea is a rare and striking succulent, distinguished by its compact rosettes of smooth, pale green leaves that can develop yellowish hues in full sun. The thick, fleshy leaves, slightly recurved, feature delicate, fine-toothed margins. In bloom, it produces tall, unbranched inflorescences with clusters of yellow-orange tubular flowers, highly attractive to pollinators. This slow-growing aloe reaches about 30-40 cm in height, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, containers, and arid landscapes, thanks to its drought tolerance and ornamental appeal.
