Aloe 'Orange Beauty' - A beautiful large shrubby aloe that has recurved green leaves and light orange flowers on a branched inflorescence in mid winter. Plant in full sun in a well drained soil and irrigate occasionally to infrequenty. We are not sure yet how big this plant will get but it looks to have Aloe arborescens in it so expect it to be pretty good size. This extremely beautiful aloe was selected and named by San Marcos Growers as a seedling from an open pollinated Aloe maculata hybrid. The seed was collected in 2011 from seed one of the nursery's Aloe maculata 'Aurea' stock plants. 

The information about Aloe 'Orange Beauty' that is displayed on this web page is based on research conducted in our nursery's horticultural library and from reliable online resources. We will also include observations made about this plant as it grows in our nursery gardens and other gardens that we have visited, as well how the crops have performed in containers in our nursery field. We also incorporate comments that we receive from others and welcome hearing from anyone with additional information, particularly if they share cultural information that aids others growing this plant.

 
San Marcos Growers, established in 1979, will close at the end of 2025 so that the property can be developed for affordable housing.
