Aloe hybrids combine the genes of different aloes so that the hybrid has a wider range of growing conditions it will tolerate and more options regarding flower time. 

Cultivating the perfect garden aloe hybrid which  would bloom throughout the year (preferably) is ongoing and not far away.  There are aloe hybrids which bloom three or more times a year, with only a few weeks between the previous inflorescens and the new one. There are also the tropical aloe species that bloom twice a year and the aloe species growing in very arid regions will bloom after good rains whenever that opportunity arrives.  Combining these aloes into hybrids is difficult as the seeds are seldom viable when the plants differ so much,  but there are people out there who just love a challenge.

Our hybrids are mainly F1 hybrids between species or hybrids made by the birds and bees. These hybrids are easy to grow in the garden and all have good flowers. The hybrid of Aloe dorothea blooms ongoing throughout the year.

Save water by gardening with water saving succulents and aloes.
