Aloiampelos ciliaris 🌿🌀 – Climbing Aloe Magic!
Meet the climbing aloe! This fast-growing, sometimes spiraling succulent starts as a compact rosette of green, pointy leaves edged with tiny white teeth. As it matures, the stems stretch, twist, and branch like a natural sculpture—turning it into a vine-like wonder. It’s rare, unusual, and a true conversation starter for any garden or indoor display!
🌱 Size: 12–24” tall, 8” wide – small but mighty!
☀️ Light: Full to part sun – loves a sunny spot but tolerates some shade
🌺 Flowers: Bright orange blooms appear in late winter and spring 🍊 – a hummingbird magnet!
🦌 Deer resistant: Keeps nibblers at bay
💧 Care: Winter grower (summer dormant), 💧 water when dry – easy for beginners!
✂️ Propagation: Easily from off-sets – share with friends or expand your collection
🗺️ Zone: 10 – thrives in warm climates
Fun fact: The spiral growth pattern isn’t just for looks—this aloe’s architecture allows it to climb and spread naturally, making it a dynamic addition to gardens, containers, or even hanging planters!
