We want to remind gardeners of some of the really early-flowering (mid- to late summer) aloe cultivars that are already showing their colours as I am writing this :
Cultivars listed clockwise from the top left corner of the collage photo on the left:
Aloe ‘Vroegjaar Geel’ – a whole bush full of yellow flowers that can go right through winter
Aloe ‘Ivory Dawn’ – compact, stemless plant with pink-to-white racemes any time of year
Aloe ‘Totem’ – tall growing plant with magnificent red-to-orange flowers, with a really long flower season
Aloe ‘Fireworx’ – stemless, medium-sized plant with clusters of pink flowers a few times every year
Aloe ‘First Gold’ – beautiful spotted green leaves with tall, striking, upright yellow flowers
