Aloe camperi is an evergreen, succulent plant from North Africa that produces rosettes of saw tooth edged succulent leaves that can be up to 60cms long and 15cms thick and curl backwards.
In cultivation it is largely grown as an ornamental thanks to its relatively compact habit and dense displays of orange to red and yellow blooms held aloft on thin stalks up to one metre from the ground.
In its native environment it is mainly grown for medicinal purposes and it will thrive in quite dry conditions.
It likes rocky slopes, sandy, open soils and will sucker or branch freely to form a small colony.
An excellent landscaping plant perfectly suite to xeriscaping and gravel gardens but also goes well on rocky slopes where little else will grow.
