Aloinopsis luckhoffii
Aizoaceae
Frederick Coe, Ross
Growing in a 5-inch container, this is a slow-growing, small woody shrub 3 inches high by 5 inches across with small succulent leaves of olive green, the tips and edge covered with small spines. The plant was in bloom, but the flowers open at 2 in the afternoon and close at 6, so the 0.75 inch straw yellow flowers were not visible. Cold tolerant to probably 25°F, winter rainfall region of South Africa.
