Aloe ‘Blue Elf’ is a succulent hybrid known for its dense, upright, blue-gray foliage and orange flower spikes produced in spring. It has a clumping, rosette habit perfect for groundcover, mass planting, border, container gardening, low-water landscapes. It thrives in full sun, though it can tolerate light shade. Very drought-resistant once established, though it should get extra irrigation in hot inland climates. Best in gritty, sandy soil, but needs good drainage. Deer and rabbit-resistant. Fire-resistant. Cold hardy to 20°F.
