Did you know that what we commonly call “aloe” is a genus with several hundred species(list of aloe species<\/a>). What these species have in common is that they are urban succulents, i.e. plants that stay green all year round and have a well-developed ability to store water.<\/p>\n

The different species can have slightly different growth habits, ranging from herbaceous or stemless to more tree or shrub-like.<\/p>\n

The leaves of the Aloe species are all sword-like and hard and are arranged in a rosette around a stem. At the top of the stem are yellow, red, green or white inflorescences.<\/p>\n

The Aloe genus belongs to the aphid family(Asphodelaceae) Read more about the aphid family here<\/a><\/span>…<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” custom_padding=”|||” custom_margin=”|||” admin_label=”CTA Row” _builder_version=”3.0.93″][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/aloe.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Carlvonlinne_aloe.jpg” _builder_version=”3.21.2″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Title” _builder_version=”3.21.2″ text_font=”Rhodium Libre|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”11px” text_text_shadow_style=”preset5″ text_text_shadow_color=”#a5a5a5″ header_font=”||||||||” header_text_color=”#000000″ header_font_size=”36px” header_text_shadow_style=”preset2″ header_2_font=”Muli|700|||||||” header_2_font_size=”65px” header_2_font_size_tablet=”50px” header_2_font_size_phone=”50px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” header_2_line_height=”1.4em” max_width_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_margin=”30px|||0px” custom_margin_tablet=”0px|||0px” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” animation_style=”slide” inline_fonts=”Rhodium Libre”]

Did you know that the author* of the name Aloe vera (L.) Burm. f. is the Swede Carl von Linn\u00e9. <\/p>\n

Carl Linnaeus named the species ‘aloe’ in his work Species plantarum published in 1753. <\/p>\n

Although Aloe vera had been used for various purposes long before, it was Linnaeus who named it and placed it in its current position in the systematics. <\/p>\n

* Author is the person in systematics who first used a particular scientific name. <\/p>\n

Afodil plants(Asphodelaceae)<\/span><\/h1>\n

Aphrodisiacs (Asphodelaceae) are a family within theasparagus<\/span> order (Asparagales).<\/span> About half of the species in the family Aphrodisiacs (Asphodelaceae) are aloe. In the past, aphrodite plants were divided into lily plants (Liliaceae) and aloe plants (Aloeaceae) and you can sometimes see similarities between aloe and lilies, for example we have seen the name desert lily for aloe. Nowadays, however, lilies are a separate order (Liliales) and perhaps a more accurate name for aloe would be desert asparagus. <\/p>\n

Other families within the asparagus order include bulbous plants (Alliaceae), orchids (Orchidaceae), amaryllis plants (Amaryllidaceae) and of course the Asparagus plants (Aspargaceae). <\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”3.21.2″][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Our Mission Section” module_id=”species” _builder_version=”3.21.2″ background_color=”#f7f7f7″ custom_padding=”28px||100px||false|false”][et_pb_row custom_padding=”40px|0px|2px|0px|false|false” admin_label=”Our Mission Area” _builder_version=”3.0.85″][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Title” _builder_version=”3.0.85″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Lato||||||||” header_2_font_size=”36px” header_2_line_height=”1.5em” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||15px|” custom_padding=”|||” animation_direction=”left”]

The Aloe genus consists of several hundred species but only a few are used commercially. By far the most common species used in industry is ‘true aloe’, i.e. Aloe vera<\/em>. (L.) Burm. f.<\/span> (Aloe barbadensis Mill.).<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”14px|0px|28px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.21.2″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.21.2″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.21.2″]

Other species that may occur commercially include Kapaloe (Aloe ferox), Tree Aloe (Aloe arborescens) and Aloe spicata (Aloe sessiflora or also aloe tauri).<\/p>\n

The species Short-leaved aloe (Aloe brevifolia), Aloe descoingsii, Taggaloe (Aloe marlothii), Aloe perry, Aloe saponaria and Aloe variegata are also used, but as decorative flowers. <\/p>\n
