Starfish Aloe 🌿⭐
(Aloe cameronii)
Color-Changing • Cold-Tolerant • Low Maintenance
Add bold color and texture to your landscape or containers with Starfish Aloe, a standout aloe prized for its dramatic red coloration when exposed to sun, cooler temperatures, and low water. Native to southern Africa, this hardy, medium-sized aloe delivers year-round interest with minimal care.
As conditions become drier or cooler, the foliage transforms from green to deep copper-red, making it one of the most visually dynamic aloes available.
