Aloe speciosa

This aloe is at my younger sister's home. She & her husband are excellent horticulturists. Though I haven't seen for myself, I suspect their toes are as green as their thumbs.

My goodness, that is very unusual and intriguing!

What a cool slice of a photo. They may be excellent horticulturists but you have an excellent eye for photography! Very nice!

Unique view....great cut.

Thank you my friends for all the thumbs & nice comments.
So good to "see" all of you!
Stay safe & well

Here are the full images....a spectacular plant with multiple bloom spikes.

Beautiful and so very eye catching.

Spectacular banner Cal!

My sister & her husband will be thrilled to hear your comments.

Wow!!! That is one eye-catching photo. I've been going in and out of the Database so much today, looking up garden plants, and each time I'm thrilled to see how you've caught such fresh beauty.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Great banner Cal. Thank you for posting the pics.

Yet another gorgeous banner Cal!

Keep it up!

I'm so happy you enjoyed the banner & images.
I don't know how old that specimen is, but we have one
that's at least 40 yrs old, has only one stalk, and puts out
only 2 bloom spikes per year.

I believe gardening is one of the very best ways to boost one's immunity.
Fresh air, plants popping up (especially where you forgot you put them),
bees buzzing, birds singing, then sharing it all with friends.

for a spectacular banner, Cal!

I must continue my commenting on your follow up.......the gorgeous photos are impressive, alongside of your kind and friendly comments. Likewise wishing you good health and safety.
