Soap Aloe

[JimFox]

I think this is Soap Aloe. I captured it yesterday at Knotts Berry Farm. What's great about amusement parks, at least in SoCal is they are part arboretum, rides and great food. I have an annual pass with all you can eat food, so I had gone there for lunch and came back with some flower photos.

All comments are welcome,

All you can eat with your annual pass? They will lose money on that count with you

Beautiful bloom - reminds me a bit of torch lilies.

I am now at the point where I believe Knotts is paying $18 to $20 every time I go there to eat.

Thanks! I thought the blooms looked interesting.

That is an interesting looking flower with a strange name to go with it.

Thanks Jameel. I guess because Aloe is used in soaps? You wouldn't think soap though when looking at the flowers.
