- Waterwise & Indigenous
- Highly prized foliage plant
- Unique fan like spires
- Great statement plant
- Plant level: Very Easy
If you are looking for a green sculptural masterpiece that is Waterwise and indigenous, then the Fan Aloe might just be it.
These beauties grow in a relatively small area, from Franschoek to Grabouw, in the Western Cape. As a mature plant, they form graceful 3-5meter trees with forked stems that end in curious fan-line foliage arrangements.
They'll be happy as a potted house plant if you give it a sunny yet well-aerated (breezy) spot. Make sure the soil is well-draining, and that the plant doesn't sit in water.
Place your beauty as an accent plant as a table centrepiece or on a windowsill.
Please note: Aloe is not known to be toxic unless excessive amounts are injected, besides this plant should be an heirloom, not a snack.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Follow these instructions to keep your Fan Aloe healthy and happy.
Water: Water thoroughly and then let the soil dry out in between.
Light: Plenty of direct sunlight - a few hours per day - but make sure that the sun isn't scorching hot.
Humidity: No humidity adjustments required
Fertilize: Feed your tree once a month with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted by half
