The Tiger Tooth Aloe (Aloe juvenna) is a charming, compact succulent native to the rocky highlands of Kenya. It features bright green, triangular leaves stacked tightly along slender stems, adorned with creamy-white spots and soft, harmless teeth along the edges. When exposed to bright, direct sunlight, the foliage develops a vibrant coppery-red stress coloration. This low-maintenance Tiger Tooth Aloe plant thrives in well-draining cactus soil and requires infrequent watering, allowing the soil to dry completely between sessions. Popular as a windowsill houseplant, it grows in attractive spreading clumps and occasionally produces slim spikes of orange-red tubular flowers during the summer.
