Isn't this a fiery marvel of nature Joyce ! Those "petals" look like chilli peppers ! I have never seen one of these in real life, nor have I seen a picture of one .So you have introduced me to something completely new. I must go and look up "aloes". Amazing beauty! v/f

Beautiful shot, Joyce. I never saw an aloe blossom before, even though we have an aloe plant in our home. Very lovely. v/f

Thank you so much dear Lianne; I have several varieties - not sure what the real name for this one is, but it is still in the Aloe family....like little natural fireworks every year in the garden....thinking of you my sweet friend! Joyce
