- Waterwise, easy-care evergreen aloe that thrives in full to filtered sun and fast-draining soil.
Safari Orange Aloe (Aloe hybrid ‘ANDora’, PP28,003) brings sustained color to low‑water gardens and containers, producing big, showy spikes of brilliant orange blooms over upright clumps of glossy green leaves. Heat‑ and drought‑tolerant once established, this repeat‑flowering aloe excels in full to partial sun and lean, fast‑draining soil—perfect for rock gardens, large‑scale groundcover drifts, poolside borders, or statement containers that keep the color coming from summer through winter.
Plant Description
A clustering, repeat‑blooming aloe with succulent green foliage and soft marginal teeth. Forms an upright, spreading clump and sends up multiple spikes of brilliant orange flower clusters for long seasonal interest.
Flowers & Bloom Time
Large, showy orange flower spikes with many clustered florets. Main bloom runs from summer into winter, with strong re‑blooming performance to extend the display.
Habit & Size
Foliage typically reaches about 12–18 in. tall and up to ~40 in. wide; flower spikes elevate the display to roughly 36 in. tall. Clumps broaden gradually for full, textural coverage.
Sun & Exposure
Performs in full sun, partial sun, or bright filtered sun. Strong light encourages compact growth and abundant blooms.
Water & Soil
Water thoroughly only when the soil is completely dry. Plant in lean, loose, sandy or rocky, fast‑draining soil (use cactus/succulent mixes for containers). Reduce watering during cooler months.
Hardiness
USDA Zones 9–11; a frost‑tender evergreen. In colder climates, grow in containers and overwinter indoors in bright light.
Special Features
Waterwise and easy‑care; attracts pollinators including hummingbirds; generally deer and rabbit resistant; improved pest/disease resistance; heat and drought tolerant once established.
Landscape Uses
Border or poolside accent, rock and gravel gardens, massed as large‑scale groundcover, or featured in contemporary containers. Excellent for water‑wise and Mediterranean‑style designs.
Care & Maintenance
Establish with occasional deep watering in the first season; thereafter, water sparingly. Fertilize lightly and infrequently. Divide clumps every 2–3 years in early spring if needed to refresh vigor.
Spacing & Planting
Space ~36–48 in. on center for continuous coverage and airflow. Plant slightly high in mounded or well‑drained beds to prevent crown rot.
Indoor & Container Tips
Use a gritty succulent mix and a pot with ample drainage. Provide bright light (south or west exposure), rotate for even growth, and avoid water sitting in saucers.
Patent & Breeding
Cultivar ‘ANDora’ (PP28,003), part of the Safari Aloe breeding line selected for floriferous habit, repeat bloom, landscape scale, and robust garden performance.
