Aloe hybrids – ‘Sidewinder’

Patent and parentage info – https://uspto.report/patent/grant/PP32,979

Sidewinder is an older Kelly Griffin hybrid being sold under the Star Aloe label from Altman Plants, though it is probably one of the easier ones to find elsewhere. It’s a larger growing hybrid whose parentage includes Sunrise, Delta Lights and Neon Lights.

Younger plant. Fairly distinct pattern, definitely can see the Delta Lights influence here. And Delta Lights is a deltoideodonta hybrid, so that’s probably where the wide leaves come from.

Stress color

Large clump I found last year
