Hi there,

I recently found an aloe species that was selling at Ikea. It has green lines running along its leaves, can someone please help with ID. Thanks!

Quoting Palmbob:

"When young, many of these larger spotted aloes are striped and distichous (leaves in two planes only)"

Looks like Aloe striata hybrid maybe (teeth along margins not present on striata species, can't tell how big they are from the photos).

Yes Baja_Costero, it does look like an Aloe striata. This plant I'm showing is fairly small, only about 4" wide and tall. Thank you!!
