Plants in the Aloe genus are easy to grow, forming dense clumps of fleshy, light green leaves with soft toothed margins. Spikes of tubular yellow to orange flowers appear in summer, but rarely in the UK.

Aloe 'Lime Fizz' is a hybrid aloe, forming a compact plant of pale green leaves with rust-coloured, raised markings on both sides. The leaf margins have saw-like edges in golden-orange.

For best results, grow Aloe 'Lime Fizz' indoors as a houseplant, or in well-drained soil in a sheltered, sunny part of the garden. Ideally, grow plants in pots, which you can use in patio displays in summer, and move indoors in winter.
