Are you on the lookout for a striking and low-maintenance aloe plant to elevate your garden? Look no further than the Aloe Tree, known as Aloidendron barberae (formerly known as Aloe bainesii or Aloe barberae). Hailing all the way from South Africa, it gets its common name, "tree aloe," because of its tall and tree-like growth habit.  

This aloe tree is one of Africa's largest-growing aloe plants, which can grow up to 30 feet in height, resembling a tree. This distinguishes it from other aloe species that have a more compact and rosette-like growth form. It features a thick-gray-smooth trunk with a grayish-brown bark that becomes rough and textured as it matures. This Aloe bainesii has a neat, rounded crown of long, narrow, deeply channeled, curved, and toothed leaves that are arranged in rosettes at the top of the trunk. 

The stunning flowers are one of the most remarkable aspects of the aloe tree. During the winter months, it produces tall, branching inflorescences that are covered in vibrant red or orange tubular flowers. These flowers attract pollinators like birds and bees, adding to the aloe plant's overall beauty.

Aloe tree propagation can be done through various methods such as seed germination, stem cuttings, or division of offsets. Overall, the Aloe tree is a versatile aloe plant with medicinal properties, attractive stems, and succulent leaves, suitable for treating burns, cuts, and skin irritations. 

Watering Needs

When it comes to watering the aloe tree, it's important to strike a balance. This succulent is known for its ability to tolerate drought conditions, so it doesn't require frequent watering. Always err on the side of underwatering because overwatering can cause root rot and other problems. 

A good rule of thumb is to water the Tree Aloe deeply but infrequently. In order to avoid waterlogged conditions, allow the soil to completely dry out between waterings; during the summer months, when your Aloe barberae is actively growing, you can water it every 2-3 weeks. In the winter, when growth slows down, you can reduce watering to once a month or even less. 

Remember, it's always better to underwater than overwater the Tree Aloe. Pay attention to the aloe plant's leaves and overall appearance. If the leaves start to look shriveled or wrinkled, it may be a sign that the plant needs water. Adjust your watering schedule accordingly, and your Tree Aloe will thrive! 

Light Requirement

The Aloe bainesii tree aloe thrives in full sun, making it a sun-loving plant. It requires bright, direct sunlight for at least 6 hours a day to maintain its health and vibrant appearance. Placing it in a location with ample sunlight will help promote optimal growth and flowering. 

If you're growing the Tree Aloe indoors, make sure to place it near a sunny window where it can receive plenty of sunlight. Alternatively, you can use grow lights to supplement the natural light and provide the necessary brightness for your aloe tree plant.

While the Tree Aloe can tolerate some shade, it may not grow as vigorously or produce as many flowers. Insufficient light can cause it to become leggy and weak. Therefore, it's best to provide it with as much direct sunlight as possible to ensure its overall well-being. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs

When it comes to the soil and fertilizer needs of the Aloe barberae, it's important to provide it with well-drained soil. A sandy or loamy soil mix is ideal for this succulent. It allows excess water to drain away, preventing the roots from sitting in water and potentially rotting. Too much water and BAM! You've got root and stem rot faster than you can say "cactus." That's why we at Planet Desert have got your back with ours specialized succulent potting mix. This will help mimic the natural conditions that the Tree Aloe prefers. 

As for fertilizing, the Tree Aloe doesn't require frequent or heavy feeding. Aloe plants are generally low maintenance when it comes to fertilization. You can use a balanced natural fertilizer specifically formulated for succulents with an equal dose of NPK. During the active growing season, which is typically spring, you can fertilize the Aloe tree once a month. In the dormant season, reduce or stop fertilizing altogether as the plant's growth slows down. 

Remember, providing well-draining soil and occasional fertilization will help keep your Tree Aloe healthy and thriving! 

Hardiness Zone & More

The Aloe tree is native to the warm regions of South Africa and is known for its ability to tolerate hot and dry conditions. It is typically hardy in USDA hardiness zones 9 to 11, which means it can withstand minimum temperatures of 20 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit. 

In terms of temperature preferences, the Tree Aloe thrives in warm climates. It can tolerate temperatures as high as 100 degrees Fahrenheit but may experience some stress if exposed to prolonged extreme heat. It is important to protect your aloe trees from frost and freezing temperatures, as it is not frost-tolerant. 

As for humidity, the Tree Aloe is adapted to arid and semi-arid environments, so it prefers low to moderate humidity levels. It can handle dry air and does not require high humidity to thrive. However, it is important to provide adequate moisture to the aloe tree roots, especially during the growing season, to ensure their overall health. 

With the help of Aloe barberae – Aloe tree, you'll start to spend less time maintaining your garden and more time taking in its beauty!

So readable!
Format: Paperback
I devoured this book in one day, and I’m very glad I didn’t read reviews first. Go in blind if you can—the jacket gives just enough and nothing more. At first, it feels like a story about control. Dannie—who has planned every detail of her life—has everything working exactly as intended. Until one night she falls asleep and spends an hour five years in the future. It doesn’t feel like a dream. It feels like inhabiting a premonition—something real, physical, and undeniable. When she wakes up, everything shifts. The story moves from careful planning to knowing—and not being able to change what’s coming. It’s not the story you think it will be. But it is a very good love story. What I appreciated most is how it explores what love actually asks of us, without dressing it up or making it easy. It’s a quick read, but it lingers. And somehow, I’m not even mad at the author for taking me on an unexpected journey.

Perfect summer book!
Format: Kindle
Dannie has had her life planned out since she was a little girl. Get into the good school, find the right job, meet the guy, find the perfect job, get engaged, get married, buy the house, and maybe one day, have the kid. So far, everything is going according to her plan. She has made it to the "get engaged" moment and it is perfect. She has the man of her dreams and everything is on track to meet all of her goals. But the night of her engagement, something makes her swerve off course. She dreams a very vivid and real dream that it is 5 years in the future and she is in a different apartment and has a different ring on her finger, and there is a different man in her life. She wakes up suddenly and tries to forget. 4 and a half years go by and Dannie still hasn't set a wedding date...life keeps getting in the way. One night she and her fiance meet her best friend, Bella, for dinner on a double date only to find that her best friend's date is the man she dreamed about. All Dannie can think about why he is in her life and more importantly, how she can change the future. Along the way, Dannie has to learn many hard lessons, including accepting the unexpected. Told from Dannie's perspective, this fast paced and heart breaking novel, examines love and one's chosen family. The author uses "the dream" to frame the entire story and I loved the feel and rhythm of this book. It feels suspenseful knowing Dannie is on somewhat of a countdown. This isn't a romance book (believe me, not my thing) but it is a love story. It is a rather short novel, which made it a fast read, but I found myself wanting more. I would have liked to have seen a little more plot development before the story's major twist occurred. But overall, I really enjoyed and would recommend to anyone wanting a heartfelt, yet not sappy, summer read.

Not what I expected at all
Format: Paperback
Hmmm. So this is a good book. But I’m mad b/c I feel betrayed. The back of the book says it’s about Dannie, and how the night she gets engaged to her longtime boyfriend David, she falls asleep. And then she wakes up and spends one hour 5 years in the future. A different apartment, a different ring, a different man. “It’s a love story, but it is not the one you’re expecting”. Ok, so spoiler alert. If you’re planning to read the book, maybe you shouldn’t read this review and should just read the book as it’s meant to be read. But I would have liked a warning. This is a story about friendship. Dannie and Bella have been best friends since they were 7. While Dannie is conservative and loves to plan, Bohemian Bella flies by the seat of her pants and goes where the wind takes her. They are so different, but are twin souls. And I think the story of their friendship would have been enough. But instead, I was told it was a love story about a woman and two potential men. And I was definitely not warned that this would be a crying book, but the last 20 pages had me just over misty. Overall, this was not the book I thought I’d be reading. And while it was good, I feel like I’ve been tricked and I’m mad about it.

well written
Format: Kindle
I enjoyed reading this story. It kept my attention and I read the book in a couple of days. The end was a bit unexpected, which is a good thing. The story itself was a little slow at times and I didn’t feel that drawn to the characters. I also wish I had known that it would be a bit sad.
