Sao Roque, December
About the theme "Mildest climates":
Aloe arborescens is originary from South Africa's Garden Route.
From link the mildest coasts of the world, given in theme:
... the first littoral station which is no more located in an island, Mossel Bay, South Africa.
About the plant:
The Aloe arborescens has the same properties of other Aloes, like the Aloe vera (Barbadensis Miller) and better properties regarding therapeutic applications, being able to substitute Aloe vera in almost every way.
On the outside the leaves present a smooth and rubbery touch. The transparent gel inside appears to contain a "healing hormone" that accelerates healing of skin injuries. Scientists have found that the Aloe Arborescens Gel is a diverse mixture of antibiotic, astringent, coagulating agent, pain inhibitor and cell growth stimulator.
Scientists realise that the "Specific Mixture of Ingredients" in Aloe Arborescens is responsible for giving the plant its wide range of healing features. The properties of Aloe arborescens Gel, applied externally or taken internally, have been described in numerous scientific journals and reveals that the Aloe Arborescens contains more than 70 Essential Ingredients including most Vitamins, Minerals, Enzymes, Protein, Amino Acids and a recent study also discovered Vitamin B 12.

Hi Ilena, Good POV bringing the beautiful orange of this plant into play, lovely view, great composition & light, very well cropped, overall i like it, however the focus lets it down a little, kind regards Wilson.

Hello,
a very well captured light on these flowers giving a vitality to these scene. Maybe the only problem is a bit of a lack of sharpness in the background - but that is not over-detrimental. (And a bit of a note would bring more comprehension about the photo as well.)
Best regards Kristof

I have to say, i never saw your photo before taking mine, but this time i think it's a really nice coincidence. We're both so apart and yet our ideas came so close! Nice job, as always
Abraço,
Bruno
