Meet Aloe dorotheae, famously known as Sunset Aloe — a show-stopping succulent that looks like it’s been painted by the sun itself. In bright light, its plump, triangular leaves transform from fresh green into blazing shades of orange, coral, and fiery red. The color shift is dramatic, intentional, and absolutely mesmerizing.
This aloe isn’t just hardy — it’s bold. Whether grown as a single specimen or used as the focal point in an arrangement, Sunset Aloe brings instant warmth and energy to any space. Easygoing, drought-tolerant, and endlessly photogenic, it’s perfect for beginners who still want something that turns heads.
Low maintenance. High impact. Total glow-up plant.
Reminder to Order a Heat Pack if Cold
Cold temps ahead? ❄️
If your local temperatures drop below 40°F, we strongly recommend adding a heat pack to your order to protect your aloe during transit and ensure it arrives vibrant and stress-free.
Plant Sizing Guide
What Size Am I Getting? Let's Break It Down.
We get it—plant sizes can be confusing. Is a “small” the size of a golf ball or a grapefruit? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Below is a quick guide to help you understand what each size means when shopping our plants. Measurements refer to the plant body, not including the pot (unless noted).
Tiny
- Baby plants or starter plugs. May be rooted or freshly cut. 0.5"–1.5" wide.
- Example: Butterwort plug, small seedling
Small
- Young plant, well-rooted, 1.5"–3" wide or tall.
- Example: Aeonium cutting, sundew cluster
Medium
- Established plant, 3"–5" wide/tall. Ready for repotting or display.
- Example: 2–3 year-old cactus, flowering flytrap
Large
- Mature plant, 5"–8" wide/tall. Great for centerpieces or statement planters.
- Example: Dioscorea elephantipes, pitcher plant
XL (Collector Size)
- Rare or mature specimen, 8"+ or unusually large or sculptural in form.
- Example: Caudex giants, multi-head aeoniums
📦 Note:
- Pot sizes (if included) are listed separately on product pages.
- Some species naturally stay small—even large ones might only be a few inches wide. Check individual listings for details.
- Photos are of representative plants—your plant may vary slightly (because nature’s not into clones).
