This Karen Zimmerman hybrid is an F2 cross of Aloe parvula and Aloe divaricata, with relatively narrow leaves bearing many prickles or bumps, appearing almost furry from a distance. The leaves may be various colors of green, blue, pink and brown (depending on exposure and other conditions). This hybrid was released by the ISI in 2011 as ISI 2011-20. It is a sibling of "Dragon" (also released by the ISI), which has narrower leaves and fewer, smaller teeth.
