Description

Aloe ‘Pink Blush’ is a clumping hybrid created by breeder Kelly Griffin, though its exact parentage is unknown. It forms tight rosettes of dark and light green leaves patterned with raised white spots and distinctive pink‑blushed ridges, which intensify with strong light. The rosettes typically reach up to 30 cm (1 ft) tall and wide, making it one of the larger miniature hybrids.

The leaves are lance‑shaped, textured, and edged with small teeth. In bright sun, the pink coloration becomes more vivid, giving the plant its signature “blush.”

When mature, it produces a short inflorescence with orange to reddish‑orange tubular flowers, usually blooming from late winter to spring.

Origin & Background

• A cultivar, not a naturally occurring species.

• Bred for ornamental qualities—color, texture, and compact form.

• Popular in collections due to its unique pink ridging and manageable size.

Growth & Cultivation

• Light: Bright light to full sun; pink tones intensify with more sun.

• Soil: Fast‑draining succulent mix; avoid waterlogged conditions.

• Water: Allow soil to dry between waterings; overwatering leads to root rot.

• Temperature: Best in warm conditions; hardy roughly to USDA zones 9–11.

• Growth habit: Moderate growth, forming offsets over time.
