English Introduction
Ecotree is a US nursery specializing in the cultivation and sale of Aloe polyphylla (spiral aloe), based in South Carolina. Founder Alan Beverly, MSc., developed his fascination with this species after returning from Lesotho in 1977, initially experimenting with seed germination from wild populations. Over 40+ years of cultivation experience, he established a unique propagation process, officially offering these rare plants to the public since 1992 and now shipping live spiral aloe plants to all 50 US states.
Spiral Aloe
Aloe polyphylla, known as “The Gem of the Drakensberg,” is a rare species evolved in the high mountains of Drakensberg in southern Africa. Its uniquely spiral leaf arrangement makes it highly prized among plant enthusiasts worldwide. As wild populations are protected, Ecotree’s artificial cultivation system allows this rare plant to reach gardens across America.

Ecotree offers Aloe polyphylla in multiple sizes: medium-large plants with 35-45 leaves (1 gallon) and young plants with 15-20 leaves (4 inch). All plants are greenhouse-cultivated with healthy root systems, shipped nationwide. The website also provides care and cultivation guides to help customers maintain healthy plants. Founder Alan Beverly holds an MSc. in horticulture and brings professional expertise to his 40+ years of cultivation practice.
