Aloe aristata Haw., Philos. Mag. J. 67: 280 1825. (Syn: Aloe aristata var. leiophylla Baker; Aloe aristata var. parvifolia Baker; Aloe ellenbergeri Guillaumin; Aloe longiaristata Schult. & Schult.f.);
Aloe aristata (torch plant, lace aloe) is a species of evergreen flowering perennial plant in the family Asphodelaceae. It is stemless, sawtoothed and succulent. Its nectar-rich, tubular orange flowers tend to attract birds, bees, and wasps easily. It is cultivated as a garden plant, but as it requires winter heat is grown under glass in temperate regions. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society‘s Award of Garden Merit.
When not in bloom, it is similar to and often confused with Haworthia fasciata.
