Ghost Aloe

Aloe Striata Hyb. 'Ghost Aloe'

Design with this plant

Overview

Ghost Aloe, Aloe striata hyb., is a distinctive succulent known for its pale grey-green leaves with a smooth, almost eerie pastel finish. Lacking the typical spines found on aloe leaf margins, this frost-tender plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-draining soil. Mature rosettes span up to 18 inches in diameter, and in late winter to spring, it flaunts coral-red blooms on stems reaching 2 feet tall.
