Gasteraloe sp. (Succulents)

Gasteraloe is a hybrid, resulting from the cross between an Aloe and a Gasteria. It is usually a stemless plant, which has a series of elongated, triangular-section succulent leaves, that grow in the shape of a rosette. Usually the leaves have colorful spots or small “bubbles” of a different color than the base of the leaf has, which creates very interesting combinations of shapes and colors; the edges of the leaves are generally serrated. The inflorescence emerges from the center of the rosette: it has a stem, on which a series of small bell-shaped flowers bloom.
