Aloe maculata

Aloe maculata prefers a full-sun, warm, and dry location. It is very heat and drought tolerant, but frost-sensitive or only slightly frost-tolerant.

The soil should be very loose, sandy to mineral, and extremely well-draining. A neutral to slightly alkaline pH value (approx. 6.0–7.5) is ideal. Waterlogging should be avoided at all costs.

The plant grows as a succulent rosette plant and usually reaches 30 to 60 cm in height, and can spread wider over time. It is primarily valued for its spotted, fleshy leaves and its yellow-orange inflorescences.
