Aloe pearsonii × distansI made this hybrid many years ago, trying to capture the reddish leaves and stacking habit of A. pearsonii in a plant that is easier to grow. I am happy with the result, but it is perhaps not as easy for those who do not live in winter-rainfall climates (both A. pearsonii and the other parent, A. distans, are from western South Africa, in the winter-rainfall zone, and neither is fond of humid summers). A selection of this cross was named ‘Hellskloof Bells’ and introduced by the Huntington Gardens, but the plant pictured is an unnamed sibling. This hybrid needs plenty of sun or the reddish color will be lost.-Brian -- source link
