Aloe barberae

Formerly known as A.bainesii. The second largest of all succulents, eventually reaching 18m in height. Even small plants soon form statuesque specimens. Tough grower in most areas. Mild frosts only.

2.Indoors OK, Outdoors OK, easy to grow.

One of the biggest examples in New Zealand, trunk about 2m diameter.
In PB28's.
I tied the camera to a long pole to get this pic!
Flowers.
Bigger plants ready for someone's garden.
ARC Botanic Gardens, Manurewa, an early pic.
Exactly ten years later.
