Aloe bakeri is a species of flowering plant in the family Asphodelaceae, native to Madagascar, where it grows on rocky hills at low elevations.[3] Growing to 10–20 cm (4–8 in) tall by 40 cm (16 in) wide, it is an evergreen perennial forming multiple rosettes of spidery succulent green or reddish-green toothed leaves, heavily mottled with white. The leaves are typically 10 cm (4 in) long[4] and bear straight or slightly curved white teeth that are 1 mm long and about 1-2 mm apart.[5] In summer it produces red or orange, green-tipped tubular flowers.[6] These flowers are attractive to birds, bees, and wasps,[7] and are typically 2 cm (0.75 in) long, borne on racemes 30 cm (12 in) tall.[4]

The Latin specific epithet bakeri honours one of two British horticulturalists, in this case John Gilbert Baker of Kew (1834-1920).[8]

With a minimum temperature of 10 °C (50 °F), this plant requires winter heat, and in temperate regions is cultivated under glass. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[9][10] However, it may be susceptible to scale and mealybugs.[3] In the US, this plant is best grown outside only in hardiness zone 11.[4]
