Aloe pentagona ‘Black Gem’

Technically an aloe-haworthia crossbreed, it is also known as Aloe pentagona and Alworthia pentagona. This aloe has thick fleshy leaves with few and very dull teeth. It readily offsets to form a cluster of thick dark-green. When running on the dry side, the leaves will take on a dark bronze-black color.

Excellent as a “filler” in succulent gardens and bowls.
