The Fynbos Aloe can be propagated both by cuttings/offshoots or by seed.

Aloe succotrina, the Fynbos aloe, is an medicinal aloe which is endemic to Cape Town and the south-western corner of the Western Cape, South Africa.

This elegant little aloe is also one of only three aloes that are indigenous to the city of Cape Town (the others being the Fynbos Aloe and the Soap Aloe).

Few other aloes naturally occur in this corner of South Africa, the exceptions being the Fynbos Aloe, Table Mountain's Aloe commixta, and the Fan Aloe's rare sister species Aloe haemanthifolia.

Aloe succotrina can easily be grown as an ornamental plant in Mediterranean climate gardens, rockeries, and in containers.

Aloe succotrina is naturally found on the Cape Peninsula, and as far as Mossel Bay to the east.
