Soap Aloe

Aloe maculata previously known as Aloe saponaria and commonly known as Soap Aloe is a neat and very rewarding winter flowering succulent. It has showy flowers in winter and is ideal for boarder planting in a garden. This is a very hardy medium sized aloe. It grows in a variety of habitats, including grassland, thicket and rocky outcrops, and is one of the most widely distributed of the spotted or maculate aloes. It occurs from the Cape Peninsula through the Western and Eastern Cape, into the eastern Free State and Lesotho, through KwaZulu-Natal to Mpumalanga and Swaziland. In a dry sunny climate the leaves of Aloe maculata are short and wide. Plants from a wetter climate, especially when planted in shade, has narrow long leaves. The leaves are always spotted with sharp brown teeth.
