Aloe munchii
This Aloe species comes from the Chimanimani Mountains along the border between Zimbabwe and Mozambique. In habitat it can get ery tall, but our plant is only about 2 meters tall even after several decades. We have it planted where it gets covered in winter, because we doubt its ability to withstand our occasional freezing temperatures at this time of year. The gracefully recurving leaves are a delight all year long, but the red-orange flowers in winter are a special treat.
