I captured these beautiful vibrant red Aloe flowers in a large garden bed at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Sydney against a cloudy blue sky.

[Wikipedia]
The Aloe succotrina plant forms clusters of between 1–2 metres (3.3–6.6 ft) diameter, with its leaves forming dense rosettes. In winter when it flowers (June to September) it produces a tall raceme, bearing shiny red flowers that are pollinated by sunbirds.

Aloe succotrina can easily be grown as an ornamental plant in Mediterranean climate gardens, rockeries, and in containers. It is particularly striking in winter, when it flowers. Western Cape gardens use it in Fynbos native plant themed natural landscaping. The plant prefers a sunny, well drained spot. Space should be provided for maturity, as it eventually grows into a large and dense cluster.

Family:Asphodelaceae
Subfamily: Asphodeloideae
Genus:Aloe
Species:A. succotrina
