Aloe ‘Moonglow’
Spectacular Winter‑Blooming Aloe with Pale Yellow Flowers

Aloe ‘Moonglow’ is an exceptionally floriferous aloe prized for its dramatic winter flower display and bold architectural presence. It forms dense clumps of upright rosettes with narrow gray‑green leaves that provide year‑round structure. From late fall through winter, tall branching flower spikes rise well above the foliage, carrying abundant clusters of pale yellow blooms that bring vibrant color during the quietest season of the garden.

Perfect for water‑wise landscapes, Aloe ‘Moonglow’ combines striking seasonal color with excellent drought tolerance and minimal maintenance. Its clumping habit and large flowering display make it ideal for focal plantings, mass displays, and large containers where winter interest is desired.
