Aloes in the desert

 

Aloes are common as landscape succulents, ingredients in skincare products, and even as an additive to some health foods. They are desert plants from Africa that are now commonly grown in the deserts of the United States. We grew aloe vera around our home in Mesa, Arizona for many years. This photo was taken along the Queen Creek at the Boyce Thompson Arboretum on a recent trip back to the Salt River Valley.
