 A beautiful Rhodesian native, Aloe cameronii, develops vibrant coppery-red foliage when exposed to sun and mild drought. This variety, often called Red Aloe or Cameron’s Ruwari Aloe, has a shrubby, upright growth habit and brings year-round drama to any xeriscape, patio, or succulent collection.
 Discovered in the 1850s in present-day Malawi by Kenneth J. Cameron, this aloe is not just botanically fascinating—it’s visually striking and easy to grow. It has remained a standout foliage aloe, valued for its form, tone, and cold tolerance.
🍃 Key Features
Coloration: Narrow green leaves turn brilliant red when water is withheld and sun exposure is high.
Growth Form: Clumping succulent with 1–2 ft tall open rosettes, forming dense, upright colonies.
Flowers: Produces 12″ red-orange flower spikes in late fall to early winter. A rarer form, ‘Creme Tangerine’, produces greener summer foliage and bright orange flowers.
Low Maintenance: Thrives in full sun, needs little water, and is deer-resistant.
Cultural Note: Leaf color may remain green in nursery conditions—red emerges over time with proper light and reduced water.
🌵 Care & Growing Tips
Light: Full sun for best color; partial sun will keep leaves greener.
Water: Infrequent deep watering; reduce in winter to deepen red tone.
Soil: Well-draining cactus/succulent soil is ideal.
Hardiness: USDA Zone 9b+, hardy to 25–30°F.
Mature Size: 1–2 ft tall, 2–4 ft wide.
These plants may arrive completely green—that’s a sign of health. The red hues develop gradually under high light, cooler temps, and lower water levels.
