Family: Asphodelaceae
High Risk Traits:
- Grows in tropical climates
- Other Aloe species have become invasive
- Leaves with marginal teeth
- Reproduces by seed
- Self-compatible
- Limited biological and ecological information reduces accuracy of risk prediction
Low Risk Traits:
- No reports of invasiveness or naturalization, but no evidence of widespread introduction outside native range
- Aloe species palatable to browsing animals such as goats
- Ornamental
- Despite fleshy fruits, there is no evidence that this species is dispersed by birds (i.e. seed dispersal may be limited)
