Botanical Name: Aloe ‘Blizzard’
Common Names: Blizzard Aloe
Aloe ‘Blizzard’ is an ornamental hybrid succulent developed from parent species native to southern Africa. It features compact, symmetrical rosettes of pale green to bluish-gray leaves adorned with subtle white markings or streaks, giving the plant a frosty, “blizzard-like” appearance. Slow-growing and architectural, this aloe is perfect for small containers, succulent collections, and rock gardens. Mature plants typically reach 6–12 inches tall and 12–18 inches wide.
Care and Cultivation:
Prefers bright light to full sun
Water sparingly; allow soil to dry completely between waterings
Use a fast-draining cactus or succulent soil mix
Ideal for containers, patios, and indoor displays
Ideal growing temperatures: 60–85°F (16–29°C)
Best suited for USDA Zones 9–11
Frost Tolerance and Cold Hardiness:
Not frost-tolerant; protect from temperatures below 32°F (0°C)
Winter Dormancy and Health:
Growth slows during cooler months
Reduce watering significantly in winter
Maintain bright light to preserve compact rosette form
Notes:
Frosty, white-marked leaves create a striking appearance
Compact, architectural growth ideal for containers
Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance once established
Beginner-friendly hybrid for succulent collections
