Astroloba spiralis, commonly known as 'Spiral Aloe', is a succulent subshrub native to South Africa. It belongs to the family Asphodelaceae and the genus Astroloba. This plant is known for its unique spiral leaf arrangement and thrives in subtropical climates. It undergoes a dormancy period of about 2 months during the cooler seasons.
