Guido Aloe

Aloe'Guido' is an amazing drought tolerant succulent with show stopping patterned leaves. The short tidy rosettes with pale green leaves have white elongated dashes running from base to tip of each leaf, creating an amazing fabric pattern like effect. Stunning. Obviously selected for its unusual foliage, it does produce from summer to fall delicate spikes of coral to salmon colored bell shaped flowers. This is a diminutive aloe forming clumps of rosettes only 6-8' tall. Very suitable for indoor containers or planted in groups. Only hardy in USDA zones 9-11, it can only be used indoors or outside for the summer only in the Chicago area.
