Botanical Name: Aloe ‘Blizzard’
Common Names: Blizzard Aloe, Hybrid Aloe
Aloe ‘Blizzard’ is a striking hybrid aloe prized for its compact rosette and frosty, pale green to silvery-blue foliage. The thick, textured leaves often display subtle white spotting and soft marginal teeth, creating a bold, sculptural appearance. Its tidy, small form makes it perfect for containers, windowsills, and succulent collections. Derived from aloe species native to southern and eastern Africa, Aloe ‘Blizzard’ is drought-tolerant and easy to grow. Mature plants typically reach 6–10 inches (15–25 cm) tall and wide, making them ideal for small spaces.
Plant Care:
• Bright light to partial sun; avoid harsh midday sun indoors
• Well-draining cactus or succulent soil
• Water only when soil is fully dry
• Low-maintenance and drought-tolerant
Frost Tolerance:
• Soft succulent; not frost-hardy
• Suitable for USDA zones 9–11
• Minimum temperature ~32°F (0°C)
• Protect from freezing and excess moisture
Winter Dormancy:
• Growth slows in winter
• Reduce watering substantially or stop entirely
• Keep soil dry during dormancy
• Resume watering in spring when active growth returns
