Aloe broomii is an acaulescent (non-stemmed) aloe. Flowers are orange with cream colored bracts. This aloe grows in arid conditions on rocky ridges and north-facing slopes throughout South Africa.

Water moderately in the summer. In the winter, this species is generally dormant. Keep it dry at or around 40°F. If left outside, frost protection will be required.

Our aloes are grown from seed collected in south Africa.
