What is the plant

Aloinopsis rubrolineata is a low multi-branching, mat-forming mesembs, will eventually form large caudex in time. The leaves of this plant are thick dark olive green tongue-like, finely warty and textured that form low rosettes.

Aloinopsis rubrolineata has a gorgeous, thick root system and when it is potted up, the plant can be progressively raised over the ground so that some of the roots can be seen and is especially cultivated for their looks. Architecturally it is a real stunner. When the "caudex" shape of the raised roots is adequately in evidence this plant is incomparable. They also tend to grow more "heads" when they are raised.
