Aloe fimbrialis is a unique succulent plant found in Zambia and possibly Tanzania. It is known for its caudex, which can grow up to five centimeters in diameter, and its long leaves that can reach up to ten centimeters. The plant also produces coral-pink flowers on an inflorescence that can grow up to 90 centimeters in length. Aloe fimbrialis is typically found on termite mounds and was first discovered in 1964. It was formally described in 1996 by Susan Carter Holmes from herbarium specimens. In 2002, the species was rediscovered by Graham Williamson near the source of the Zambezi River, on the border of Zambia and Angola. This plant is considered to be very rare.
