Origin
The Aloe dichotoma Tiga originates from the southern part of Africa, particularly from the countries Namibia, South Africa and Angola. Here, the plant grows in partially dry areas. It is in this environment that the plant has developed its unique adaptations to be able to survive.

Characteristics
The Aloe dichotoma Tiga, also known as the Quiver Tree, is renowned for its distinctive appearance. The plant has a tall, slightly weathered trunk that often splits in two hence the name dichotoma, which means 'split into two' in Greek. As the plant ages, this trunk can grow up to 9 metres in height. The grey-green leaves are elongated and sharp at the edges, forming a colourful contrast with the yellow flowers that the plant produces in summer.

Care
Aloe dichotoma Tiga is a succulent and should be cared for accordingly. This means that the plant requires little water; it's best to let the soil dry out between watering. The plant enjoys a sunny location, but can tolerate some shade. In winter, the plant can withstand cold down to approximately -2 degrees Celsius. It is also important to repot the plant annually to promote good growth.
