''Aloe barberae'' (syn. ''Aloe bainesii''), also known as Tree aloe, is a species of aloe native to South Africa northwards to Mozambique. In its native climes this slow-growing tree can reach up to 18 m (54 ft) high and 0.9 m (3 ft) in stem diameter. ''Aloe barberae'' is Africa's largest aloe. The tree aloe is often used as an ornamental plant. Its tubular flowers are rose pink (green-tipped); it flowers in winter and in its natural environment is pollinated by sunbirds.〔 ==Naming== ''Aloe barberae'' was first collected and submitted for classification by Mary Elizabeth Barber, who was a plant collector in the former Transkei. She sent specimens of the plant and its flowers to the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, where in 1874 it was named by William Turner Thiselton-Dyer (1843–1928) in her honor. Subsequently, it was also found in KwaZulu-Natal by the well known traveller, explorer and painter Thomas Baines in 1873. He also sent a specimen to Kew, where it was named ''Aloe bainesii''. Although known as ''A. bainseii'' for many years, ''Aloe barberae'' was the name first given to this plant, and takes precedence according to the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature.〔(Aloe barberae ) by Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden〕
