Aloe ibitiensis is a refreshing light green aloe, with sharp, narrow vertical stripes reminiscent of bamboo grass. It looks similar to Aloe striata A. striata , but has a slimmer profile. This species is native to the high-altitude regions of Madagascar, living between 1,400 and 2,000 meters above sea level. Aloe laeta A. laeta is a close neighbor. You might think it's tolerant to cold since it's from the mountains, but long periods below freezing are a no-go. And while it naturally grows in open grasslands, surprisingly, partial shade is safest for cultivation. Its name comes from Mt. Ibity in Madagascar.
