Aloe striata f. mostruosa variegata

This model contains two characteristics that make it absolutely unique and unmistakable. The monstrous shape with its anomalies such as reliefs and asymmetries and the variegated shape with shades and streaks make this plant very sought after by collectors around the world. In the normal form , A. striata is a succulent with the typical open rosette arrangement, with flat and lanceolate leaves, upwards and strongly pointed at the apex, finely bordered by a shaded line of pink that tends to accentuate when the plant is exposed to abundant sunlight. Its name in Latin literally means 'striped' in relation to its wonderful green-grayish epidermis characterized by long longitudinal lines that vary slightly in nuance. One of the most appreciated characters of A. striata is definitely its inflorescence, which blooms from the center of the rosette in clusters placed at the apex of long stems and livens up the environments with its bright coral notes (hence the name by which it is commonly known of "Aloe coral").
