Aloe demi

A succulent with vibrant colours  

Dots, round shapes and vibrant colours; this houseplant has it all. Aloe demi’s leaves have a vibrant, green and yellow pattern all over them. Plants with brightly coloured leaves are decorative and gives a lovely, playful effect.

These plants need more light than green plants.

 

Born in South Africa

The Aloe belongs to the family of the Xanthorrhoeaceae and grows in the vast and rugged landscape of South Africa, mostly in the area of Port Elisabeth. Some varieties grow like trees and they can mostly be found in the North-West of South Africa all the way to in Namibia. The plants are stiff and rough, provided with thick fleshy leaves in which the plant stores water to tide over during the dry spells. The South African flora belongs to the most important floras in the world. No less than 10% of all known types of plants can be found here.

Location: Partial shade or shade.
Water: The plant only needs a little water and therefore can do without for a fairly long period of time. Moderate watering once a month is sufficient.
