Aloe striata, known as the Coral Aloe, is one of the most elegant indigenous aloes, prized for its smooth, grey‑green leaves edged in coral pink. In Cape Town, it produces spectacular heads of coral‑orange flowers in late winter to early spring (July–September), lighting up the garden when colour is most needed. Compact and architectural, it’s perfect for rockeries, borders, or water‑wise landscapes. For best effect, plant 70–80cm apart to allow each rosette to spread and show off its vibrant blooms. With its graceful form and dazzling flowers, the Coral Aloe is a true jewel of the Cape garden.

Plant & Care
Plant in sandy, well‑draining soil and position in full sun for best flowering. Space plants 70–80cm apart to allow rosettes to spread naturally. Water sparingly, especially during Cape Town’s rainy winters, as aloes dislike soggy roots. Remove spent flower stalks to keep plants tidy and encourage new growth. Feed lightly with a balanced fertilizer in spring to support foliage and flowering.
