Description

Aloe tenuior​ is a rambling aloe which forms a sprawling bush. They are most attractive when in flower with a mass of delicate yellow or red flowers. Although somewhat sprawling and untidy, the grey blue foliage, a long flowering period and medium height make it useful for mass background planting. The leaves, crowded on the ends of the branches, are quite soft and are serrated along the edges.

Water Saving Tip:

Fix leaking sprinklers, valves, and pipes.

One broken spray sprinkler can waste 10 gallons per minute - or 100 gallons in a typical 10 minute watering cycle.
