Aloe 'AJR' [large]

Highlights

Aloe 'AJR' (Griffin): A fantastic plant for its colors and textures. It has a blue-green base tone, but can flush a gorgeous lavender when stressed by direct sun and drought. The leaves are covered with toothy bumps that turn a vibrant red and contrast with the base color. It can produce lots of new offsets around its base and makes an exceptional landscaping plant in frost-free climates. It also blooms multiple times with yellow to orange, tubular flowers. This plant is fully rooted in a 3.5" pot.

Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need bright sunlight, great drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
