I got his some years ago from a very reliable source labelled Aloe glauca. It looks nothing like glauca as I know it and has never flowered. Any suggestions?

Wonder if it could poss be a striatula hybrid? It does resemble a little a 'fan' like shape of plicatilis too? Poss striatula x plicatilis as a way out suggestion?

Lovely collection you have there mike :)

Nice to see your A. albiflora almost in flower, just like mine. In flower right now is this small Aloe from Madagascar, A. castilloniae.
