Plant Summary

Aloe cooperi, also known as Cooper’s Aloe, is a southern African grassland aloe that grows well in cultivation, making it a good waterwise garden plant. It is a succulent that can be grown in full sun and is easy to care for. The plant produces striking flowers in late summer, with colors ranging from pink to cream and yellow. Aloe cooperi is also used by the Zulu people, who cook and eat its young shoots and flowers as vegetables. Additionally, it is believed that the smoke from burning its leaves in the cattle kraal protects the cattle from the ill effects of eating improper food. This plant can be a valuable addition to a garden for both its ornamental value and practical uses.
