Aloe arborescens, also known as Torch Aloe, is a large succulent shrub with dense rosettes of grey-green or dark green leaves on erect branching stems. The leaf margins have upward curving teeth-like structures that are pliable. Orange-red flowers rise above foliage in winter and attract hummingbirds. Torch Aloe really shines in the winter when in bloom.
How tall and wide does Torch Aloe grow?
It grows 3–5 feet tall and 4–6 feet wide, forming dense clumps over time. Flower stalks can rise up to 8 feet tall, creating a dramatic display.
When does Torch Aloe bloom?
It blooms in winter through early spring with tall clusters of tubular, orange-red flowers that attract hummingbirds and pollinators.
What kind of sunlight and soil does it prefer?
Torch Aloe thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It tolerates heat, wind, and coastal conditions, making it ideal for dry or Mediterranean-style gardens.
How much water does it need?
Water occasionally to deeply soak the roots, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Once established, it’s highly drought-tolerant and thrives with minimal irrigation.
