Flowers: The inflorescence is usually branched to 45cm cm with three globular racemes of red flowers in summer.
Growth Habit: Upturned rosettes are15-18cm across and up to 30cm tall. The thick fleshy glaucous green leaves are broadly tapered slightly keeled with yellow teeth along the margins ending with a sharp spine.
