so pretty

[@toddstropicals]

I love aloe from the small Madagascar species bellatula to giants like marlothii, this one is quite spectacular with the red/copper colour.

[@wadegustovson5767]

Love these!! I was thinking about doing this for my next vlog. Thanks for the great info Debora!

[@marydavis1508]

I ordered seeds and successfully grew ONE. still small after two years BUT worth it!!

[@surprise251]

Where do you get the red aloe Vera seeds, Pls let me know thank you

[@navdeepsingh-pk5qk]

Aunty it's something rare thing u shown me 😘😘

[@QueenofSucculents]

Not rare at all, at least here in Southern CA. Waterwise Botanicals is one source. This is more red than most Aloe cameronii specimens due to greater sunlight (short of scorching).

@@QueenofSucculents sun is very bright in Punjab too aunty but here never seen 😙😙😘😘
Aunty show me agave Americana golden sword and variegated macrocantha 😁😙😘😘

[@botanicaltreasures2408]

The cold hardiness would make these Aloe cameronii ideal for South Carolina. I think I’ll have to order some online I haven’t noticed them locally. However, I think if I want to stress it I’d have to keep it in a pot so I can control the conditions more. We often get too much rain ☔️ for any outdoor succulent to be too stressed.🙂

[@vinsoriano493]

It looks like those spray painted succulents they sell at the store but doesn't look horrible like them since it's natural

[@zap4980]

BEAUTIFUL 😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩😍🤩

[@QueenofSucculents]

Thank you! 😊

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

It's quite frost tender and easy to rot in a rainy bay area winter if not in fast draining soil. I have two and ..also slow growing-ha. Not much chance it will run rampant!

[@QueenofSucculents]

Thanks for the regional advice!

[@ProdByXorak]

thanks for this info i am in the north bay

[@tapasroy5]

I wanted rad alovera seeds

[@Jessica-ts4dj]

Is the Aloe Camaronii the only one that gives flowers like that?

[@hindnezhi4106]

I have like this one but the bottom half died don't know how to revive them

[@QueenofSucculents]

I had that happen too. It lost its roots. That seems to happen with aloes and the related genus, haworthia. I wish I knew why and how to prevent it. The odd thing is the plant/s look absolutely fine for months, regardless.

[@hindnezhi4106]

@@QueenofSucculents thank u 😍😍

[@rosalbacarranza2221]

Are Aloe Cameronii prolific?

[@QueenofSucculents]

Well they sure are at the nursery, but I can't get mine to do much. Like so many Q's having to do with plants, the answer is "It depends."

[@rosalbacarranza2221]

Thank you for your answer! I was so excited when I found them at my local HD at a reasonable price.

[@alladinnirbannirban6655]

Cost of the plant in india.thanking you.Regards.

[@birdsinfosahiwal3739]

Hello madam do you have red aloe vera seeds

[@QueenofSucculents]

Sorry no.

[@martinjohn5113]

Can I have it's seeds

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Do some varieties have wide/thick leaves (branches)?

[@gopinathnair5534]

Can Red Alovera be propagate?

[@QueenofSucculents]

I don't believe there is such a plant, but if you're asking about Aloe cameronii, yes of course. For that matter, all aloes can be propagated.

[@mariammamathews5984]

i love aloe Cameronii ! Can you sent me a Aloe Cameronii plant ? ThanK you-----
