Aloidendron pillansii (syn. Aloe pillansii)

Aloidendron pillansii (syn. Aloe pillansii) is a critically endangered succulent tree species endemic to southern Africa. Known for its distinctive, upward-reaching branches and blue-green leaves, this succulent thrives in arid environments. The bark of mature trees develops a characteristic yellow-brown hue, adding to its unique appearance. Aloidendron pillansii is slow-growing and can live for centuries, making it a remarkable example of plant adaptation to harsh conditions.
