In late winter into spring appear the unbranched 1 foot tall flower spikes bearing about 20 pendulous 1 1/2 inch long red-orange flowers. Plant in full sun to light shade in a well-drained soil. This Aloe is drought tolerant with little to no irrigation required and is best when sheltered from getting overly wet in winter. Hardy to the low 20°'s F. Aloe humilis comes from arid areas from Mosselbay in the east through the Little Karoo to Grahamstown in the west and north to Somerset East and Graaf-Reinett. It has gone under many different names including Aloe subtuberculata, Aloe suberecta, Aloe tuberculata, Aloe incurva, Aloe acuminata, Catevala humilis, Aloe perfoliata var. humilis and Aloe echinata and is similar to (when not in flower) and confused with the slightly larger and harder to grow Aloe longistyla. The specific name 'humilis' means "low growing", refering to the plants growth habit.
