Golden Tooth Aloe 🌿
(Aloe nobilis)
Bold Color • Drought-Tolerant • Easy Care
Native to South Africa’s Eastern Cape, Aloe nobilis, commonly called Golden Tooth Aloe, is a compact, resilient succulent prized for its thick green leaves lined with golden-yellow teeth and its vibrant seasonal blooms. This low-maintenance aloe forms attractive clusters and adds both texture and color to landscapes and containers.
🌵 Key Features & Growth Habit

Showy Blooms 🌺
Produces bright orange-red flower spikes that rise above the foliage, adding seasonal color and attracting pollinators.
❄️ Cold Tolerance & Care
