Aloes are very popular and some of the most rewarding plants to cultivate. They make excellent accent plants owing to their often strange and inspiring architectures, as well as the bright flowers that offset the grey-green leaves. They are also very suitable as container plants and small aloes can be used very effectively as border plants at the edge of a bed. Although aloes are most often included in rockeries, their application in horticulture is not limited to this feature and they can be used in almost any setting and in conjunction with most common garden plants. Their natural adaptation to harsh and often arid climates makes aloes outstanding subjects for the water-wise garden. Aloe is a genus in the Asphodeloideae family containing about 600 species of flowering succulent plants. Aloes are sometimes confused with Agaves. Contrarily to Agaves, Aloe leaves contain a gel like sap. Another difference is that Aloes don’t die after blooming as most Agaves do.

Aloe chabaudii commonly known as Dwala Aloe has broad pale blue leaves with small teeth and bears beautiful salmon-pink to red flowers; rarely plants will be found that bear yellow flowers. It grows easy in a garden and contrast very nice with other green foliage. This aloe produces offsets freely and it looks best when growing in a group. Aloe chabaudii plants needs sun to bring out the beautiful colour of the rosette in shades of blue, green and pink/red – it turns pale in the shade, but give some shade in a hot climate. Aloe chabaudii was named after John A. Chabaud, a plant grower in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, in whose garden the original specimens flowered. The Matopos form differs from Aloe chabaudii in having pendant inflorescences and widely spaced branches.
