Aloe 'Doran Black'

This is becoming a very commonly sold Aloe at home garden centers and is popular because of its nearly white coloration with green to black spots. It is not a great species for full sun, at least here in So Cal, as it burns badly and looks sad. Flowers multiple times a year simple racemes of red-orange, with yellow. Plants sucker, but are sometimes slow to do so... a stemless, fast-growing hybrid excellent for pots and shady areas in warmer climates. It's a bit marginal for my climate, and probably a true 10a aloe... at least it doesnt do well exposed to the elements in zone 9b.

Sometimes erroneously called Aloe Dorian Black
