Aloe thraskii, the dune aloe, is a South African plant in the genus Aloe.
The dune aloe is a tall, fast-growing, un-branched aloe, which develops a very large rosette. The long, pale, grey-green leaves are deeply grooved or channeled (U-shaped in cross-section) and recurve downwards.
The orange and yellow flowers grow in short, compact, cylindrical racemes, on multi-branched inflorescences.[2]
These plants are naturally found in dune vegetation along the coast of KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape of South Africa.[3]
