Aloe glauca (100 seeds)

Aloe glauca (100 seeds)

Family: Aloaceae

A rosette forming acaulescent clump forming aloe with long gray-green leaves. It produces large rounded buds from which pale orange flowers emerge starting in fall and often lasting well into spring.

Sowing instructions: Seeds germinate very well but may damp off if overwatered. Use a mixture of river sand, compost and soil to sow seeds in. Sprinkle the seeds evenly on the surface and cover with a layer of small pebbles. The pebbles help the seedlings to stay upright and prevent damping off. Keep seed tray in a dry warm corner and do not allow to dry out. Transplant the seedlings after one year.
