Aloe Broomii – Snake Aloe

Description:

Aloe broomii, commonly known as Snake Aloe, is a striking, medium-sized aloe with a dense, symmetrical rosette of thick, fleshy, blue-green leaves adorned with distinctive, dark spiny margins. This slow-growing succulent can reach up to 3 feet (1 meter) in height and width, making it an eye-catching focal point in rock gardens, xeriscapes, and container plantings. During late winter to early spring, it produces a tall, unbranched flower spike covered in clusters of creamy-yellow to orange flowers, attracting pollinators such as bees and birds. Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance, Aloe broomii is perfect for adding a dramatic touch to water-wise landscapes.

Care Instructions:

•Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade. Best grown in a bright location for optimal growth and flowering.

•Soil: Well-draining, sandy or rocky soil is ideal. A cactus or succulent mix works well.

•Water: Drought-tolerant; water sparingly. Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.

•Temperature: Thrives in warm climates but can tolerate mild frost. Protect from temperatures below 25°F (-4°C).

•Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted succulent fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid excessive feeding.

•Propagation: Grown from seeds or offsets. Remove and replant offsets when they appear around the base.

Perfect for arid gardens, containers, and collectors looking for a unique, low-maintenance succulent with a bold, architectural presence.
