Pink Blush Aloe

Pink Blush Aloe is a highly decorative dwarf aloe hybrid. Mature size is an upright rosette about 12 inches tall and from 8 to 12 inches wide. The leaves are green and white patterned with raised ridges of pink and pink toothed edges. The all over aspect is of a green aloe washed in pink with darker color toward the leaf tips and older leaves. The flowers are orange and appear in winter into spring. This aloe is not hardy in the Chicago area. It makes a lovely summer accent in garden containers, but should be brought indoors to overwinter. This dwarf aloe hybrid was created by Kelly Griffin.
