ALOE LUTESCENS SEEDS - MALAPATI ALOE - INDIGENOUS SUCCULENT IN SOUTH AFRICA

Similar in general appearance to a green-leaved Aloe cryptopoda, Aloe lutescens differs in forming colonies and in producing inflorescences with three, rather than one or two, racemes. These slender racemes may be more than twice as long and bear larger papery bracts that obscure the small buds in the upper portion of the raceme. Its bicolored racemes resemble the similarly-coloured form of Aloe cryptopoda known as Aloe wickensii. The epithet lutescens, ‘becoming yellow’, aptly describes the transition of red buds to open yellow flowers. Aloe lutescens commonly known as Malapati Aloe also has a more restricted distribution in the Northern Province of South Africa. More about the Aloe genus below.
