Delta-shaped Aloe is considered a small clumping Aloe. When the plant
becomes too large, it forms large clusters of new shoots or "pups" around
its base. It has dark-green leaves with tiny white streaks
and some spots. The short, triangular shaped leaves are lined with very
small soft teeth. Flowers are pinkish-red.
