Climbing Aloe 

The Climbing Aloe or Aloiampelos ciliaris is a rapid-growing Aloe, being named after it's ability to grow 30 feet tall if supported properly but stakes or trellis.  It’s native to the tropical regions of South Africa.  It becomes almost vine like and the leaves have serrated edges that people liken to "teeth".  It is a soft succulent which means that, although it can be planted and thrive outside, it cannot survive a hard frost. It does just great as an indoor potted plant and will add interest and character to any room. If you do decide to plant it directly in the ground and live in an area that experiences a winter you will have to pull the Aloe in before freezing temperatures set in

Plant Care Tips:

 Watering:

Like all succulents climbing Aloe wants infrequent watering and to dry out completely before it's next drink of water.  

 Lighting:

They need bright, direct or indirect to survive and thrive.  In the right light they will grow very quickly as well.   It also needs to be in direct light to actually flower and/or bloom.  It can actually flower throughout the year but typically when cooler air starts to settle in you will see it stop blooming for the year 

 Temperature:

Climbing Aloe can handle intense heat 

Soil Medium: 

Since Aloe Vera is a succulent it's best to use a soil that is made for cacti/succulents. If that isn't available you want to make sure to mix in some sand and possibly rocks to mimic it's outside environment it naturally grows in.Fertilize sparingly, in the growing season, at half strength in spring and summer using a balanced houseplant formula or better, one for succulents.
