Ever changing scenes in the garden. 
The focus here is on Aloe vanbalenii in front and
Aloe barberae (tree aloe) to the right just behind the stump. 
The daisies are blooming it is winter - 20007 (that is June-July).





June 2010 and the rain season  started at least 2 months 
ago.  The aloes are washed shiny clean from the summer's 
dust.  


Interesting how the one Aloe vanbalenii plant grew way 
faster than the two on the side and Aloe barberae the 
tree aloe in the middle, more than doubled in size.  
The smaller type aloes in the background are not in the
picture any more, they have reached their maximum size

long ago. 

Special about Aloe vanbalenii is the color changing in
the leaves when it is grown "hard". That is a lot of summer 

sun and very little water.



Special about Aloe barbarae -  it is a tree.
