Aloe ‘Desert Diamond’
Description:
Native to Africa, Arabia, and Madagascar, this genus of around 400 succulent species is adapted to hot, dry climates and forms fleshy, water-storing rosettes. The hybrid ‘Desert Diamond’ is a compact ornamental form with soft white colouring that can flush pink in cooler, drier conditions. It grows in clumps to around 35 cm, preferring bright sun, free-draining soil, and minimal watering, making it well suited to pots, rock gardens, and dry landscapes.
