Aloe macra, also known as the Réunion Aloe, is a species of Aloe that is native to the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean. It is a highly variable species with different forms and is closely related to Aloe purpurea from Mauritius. The plant has green succulent leaves with red margins and can grow up to 30 cm tall. Its flowers are short and bright red, and it produces berries when fertilized. The Réunion Aloe is now extremely rare, but it was previously found on rocky slopes and outcrops. It is one of the few "Lomatophyllum" species to grow on cliffs and high rocky slopes. It was also introduced to the neighboring island of Mauritius and is still cultivated in some gardens there.
