Aloe 'Viper' [large]

Highlights

Aloe 'Viper' is a bold and exotic succulent that commands attention with its vivid green leaves dramatically streaked and spotted with deep reddish-orange markings, reminiscent of a serpent’s skin. The textured, slightly arching leaves form a tight rosette, edged with small, soft teeth that enhance its fierce yet ornamental look. Compact and easy to grow, Aloe 'Viper' flourishes in bright light with minimal watering, making it a striking choice for containers, succulent arrangements, or sunny windowsills. In bloom, it sends up a tall spike of tubular orange flowers, adding a vibrant splash of color and attracting hummingbirds and pollinators. This unique aloe is perfect for collectors seeking something both dramatic and low-maintenance.

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.
