Its leaves are lance-shaped, meaning their base is broad while they taper upward to form a tip. The leaves curve both lengthwise and widthwise. As a result, this succulent gets a ball-like appearance. The leaves may have small teeth on the inner surface, but they always have brown teeth on the margins. It produces inflorescence, which grows reddish-orange flowers. These flowers bloom in mid-winter, thus enlivening whatever location you plant this aloe.
