More Aloes

Wow, how bigs the greenhouse , looks like a botanic garden G/H.

Philippe's greenhouse is better than most Botanic Gardens, I think Philippe is just very modest! I have been three times. It is packed full of amazing plants you can spend hours in there.

Philippe, that helenae is running out of height room !

Here are a couple of my snaps of my Aloe arborescens this week. This is the 4th year in succession that it has flowered, but this year the stem is branched so I'll have double the flowers! ,, but double the dripping nectar

Aloe eximia in my collection. This is a rare arborescent Aloe species from the Central Highlands of Madagascar.

Dear Mr Richaud,
I have had A.eximia flower at little over a meter tall. They are a shy flowering species for me here in Antananarivo though. I grow a fair number of seedlings now too from my plants.
Best regards,
Olaf

Lovely flower! Reminiscent of capitata.
