Product Description

Aloe thraskii is a striking, tree-like succulent reaching up to 4 meters in height, with a thick, unbranched trunk covered in dried leaf remains. Its long, arching leaves form a dramatic rosette, each leaf boasting a deep green hue with a distinctive yellowish, toothed margin. In winter, this spectacular aloe produces tall flower spikes with dense, tubular orange to yellow blossoms, attracting pollinators. Native to the coastal dunes of South Africa, it is highly tolerant to salty winds and thrives in sandy, well-drained soils.
