Aloe Arborescens, Octopus Plant

Aloe is a genus of succulents that embraces a large number of species and belongs to the Lily family.  The Aloe leaves contain a sticky fluid that is said to give relief for pain from small cuts or burns.  Romans used Aloe for first aid.

This winter blooming Aloe Arborescens, commonly known as Octopus plant, is thriving in a section of Elena Roche's garden dedicated to succulents and cactus.
