| Positive | palmbob | On Aug 19, 2011, palmbob from Tarzana, CA (Zone 9b) wrote: As said above, plant often confused with similar toothless plants from same general geography. This is the largest of the three and has spreading, dull grey-green leaves. Plants usually solitary, but sometimes clumped into groups of 2-3 plants.
One way to tell this plant from Aloes inermis and kahinii, which look similar in that they have toothless leaves (but more channeled), is this one grows a LOT faster... mine went from a small seedling to nearly two feet in diameter in a year, while my kahinii/inermis (not sure which they are, but they are supposedly quite similar) have barely increased in size in over 3 years. |
| Neutral | Porphyrostachys | On Nov 9, 2008, Porphyrostachys from Portland, OR (Zone 8b) wrote: One of four Aloe species known from Oman, this is a relative of Aloe inermis and Aloe luntii which are both found in Yemen. The plant itself has been known of for a while (since the late 60's at least) but usually written off as either A. inermis or A. luntii. The species received a formal description in 2002 and is a welcome addition. |
