Aloe pluridens Seeds

Common Name: French Aloe

Aloe pluridens is an attractive plant which bears gracefully recurved leaves in large spiralled rosettes. It may be either single-stemmed or branched and occasionally bears numerous small plantlets on the otherwise smooth stems.

This is a tall aloe, occasionally reaching up to 5-6m high. The leaves are bright green to yellowish-green and may be up to 70cm in length. The leaf margin is armed with firm white teeth. The leaf sap is clear with a strong, rhubarb-like smell.

Inflorescences are branched and have up to 4 racemes protruding above the leaves. The flowers are usually orange or pinkish-red, but a yellow form is also known. Up to three inflorescences may be borne from each rosette. It flowers from May to July.
