    Sparsely offsetting aloe hybrid with dense, tall rosettes of narrow, recurved leaves with lots of tightly packed white teeth and dense surface texture. A 1984 John Bleck hybrid of (A. bakeri × A. parvula) × A. parvula, released by the ISI as ISI 2011-18. The parvula is very strong in this one, but the surface texture is denser and sort of smeared together compared to the species.
