This is a cliff dwelling species, which means it hangs down from cliffs. Plants have leaves that when young, are stacked, and plants can clump. When mature, forms rosettes. When sun stressed, leaves may turn turn a peach on the areas exposed to sun, but will not be even due to its cliff dwellingnature. Leaves are serrated like most other aloe species.
This plant is rare and limited in number but is not considered threatened due to its safe, stable cliff habitat. This may change in the future as geology shifts.
