Stannage Ave.
Aloe spinosissima
These mounding aloes will be covered in orange bloom spikes in a few months. They seem to do pretty well right alongside a high traffice area, holding up well to 8 year-olds on bicycles falling into them.

Spinosissima or arborescens???

They do look very similar. This is low mounding, with very long leaves, so I’m suggesting spinosissima. Arborescens tends to get 5 feet tall around here.
