The flowers of this amazing hybrid aloe are initially red but change to yellow as they open together displaying an incredible bi-colour combination in very late winter.

This very large slow stemming aloe has interesting thick dark green leaves.  It is suitable for landscape use or as a feature plant in a garden, and enjoys well-earned popularity because it flowers after the frost of winter and is resistant to gall mite.
