Aloe brevifolia

Its name 'brevifolia' comes from Latin and means "short leaf". It is often called 'Blue Aloe' for the characteristic bluish color of its leaves. It is a succulent plant that grows in a compact rosette and clusters easily. Its short and narrow leaves are smooth and only along the margins they have small white teeth. The plant takes on a reddish-brown color with the prolonged exposure to the direct sun. Its orange-red or yellow flowers bloom from a long stalk.
