Aloe vera is a stemless or very short-stemmed succulent plant growing to 60â??100 cm (24â??39 in) tall, spreading by offsets. The leaves are thick and fleshy, green to grey-green, with some varieties showing white flecks on the upper and lower stem surfaces. The margin of the leaf is serrated and has small white teeth. The flowers are produced in summer on a spike up to 90 cm (35 in) tall, each flower pendulous, with a yellow tubular corolla 2â??3 cm (0.8â??1.2 in) long. Like other Aloe species, Aloe vera forms the arbuscular mycorrhiza, a symbiosis that allows the plant better access to mineral nutrients in the soil.
