Aloe spp.: characteristics and care
The Aloe spp., popularly known as aloe, encompasses various species of succulent plants primarily native to Africa, valued for their rosettes of fleshy leaves and striking inflorescences in shades of orange, red, or yellow.
Their ornamental foliage and showy blooms make them a widely used choice for xeriscaping as well as in beds, rock gardens, and containers.
They are highly drought-tolerant once established and adapt well to poor soils, provided they have good drainage.
At Ornacom, we cultivate each specimen directly, ensuring a balanced habit and healthy development from the first years of planting.
