Aloe Nyeriensis

By Pattyhankins @PattyHankins

Aloe Nyeriensis is a member of the Xanthorrhoeaceae family native to Kenya. A succulent plant that it hardy to Zone 10a in the United States, Aloe Nyeriensis plants can grow to 6 feet tall. They have stalks which bloom with red flowers in late spring/early summer.

I love seeing the Aloe Nyeriensis when it’s in bloom – the bright red flowers add a wonderful splash of color to any scene. I’ve photographed Aloe Nyeriensis indoors on several occasions at local botanical gardens. I’ve never had the opportunity to photograph it outdoors.
