Aloe juvenna
Tiger tooth aloe is a small, spiny succulent from southwest Kenya, grown for its tidy rosettes of white-toothed leaves. Give it bright light, very well-drained soil and water only when the soil is fully dry.
Aloe juvenna (tiger-tooth aloe) is a species of plant in the genus Aloe. It is popular in cultivation but extremely rare in its natural habitat in Kenya.
It is endemic to Kenya in East Africa. Here it is restricted to a small rocky area in the mountainous south west of the country, near the border with Tanzania.
