Aloe kedongensis, also known as the "Kenyan Aloe," is a species of aloe found in Kenya and northern Tanzania. It is often used for hedges in East Africa, along with two other common species, Aloe dawei and Aloe rivae. This plant has long, slender leaves without any markings, and can grow up to 4 meters in length. Its inflorescence can reach up to 50 cm tall and has red, tubular flowers with outward-curved tips. Aloe kedongensis is a tetraploid, meaning it has four sets of chromosomes, and is part of a unique group of closely related tetraploid aloes in East Africa. This group includes five other species, each with distinct characteristics such as leaf width and flower length.
