XL Aloe Discothoma
- In stock, ready to ship
- Inventory on the way
We love this spectacular and highly unusual houseplant! From the large Aloe family of succulents, this large houseplant has a thick trunk that in its natural habitat is used to store water. From the top of this branch, the Aloe leaves - it’s a very sculptural succulent and extremely eye-catching!
One to add to your succulent collection, Aloe Discothoma has a very unique look that you certainly won’t find every day! This large houseplant can be difficult to get hold of so you need to grab it while you can if you see it in stock!
Succulents are generally very good at surviving in dry conditions as they have adapted themselves to withstand some quite extreme environments. Some people are real succulent fans - and they know something that other people don’t - succulents are really beautiful and very individual houseplants that require very little attention or care. So if you don’t want the bother of lots of maintenance then succulents may be ideal for you - this Aloe Discothoma is fascinating to look at too!
We specialise in indoor plant delivery here at Happy Houseplants and we enjoy sharing our love and enthusiasm for houseplants with all our customers. If you’re wondering where to buy houseplants you need to look no further - we’re hard to beat for variety and quality as well as friendly personal service.
We also offer to include a free, handwritten card with any houseplant gift - just let us know your gift message and we’ll make sure it’s all arranged. No paperwork left in either!

Happy Houseplants delivers live houseplants across the UK with fast, carbon-neutral tracked service.
At Happy Houseplants, we ship all live plants via DPD’s 24-hour tracked carbon-neutral service. Delivery usually takes 7–10 working days, but in most cases your plants will arrive much sooner. You can read more about delivery here.
We post to most of the UK, but we’re unable to deliver to the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Isle of Wight, the Scilly Isles and the Channel Islands because of higher shipping costs.
When we list a plant’s height, it always includes the grow pot, stem, foliage and living root system — not just what you see above the soil. Because every plant is unique, yours may arrive a little smaller or larger than the size listed.
