Falling star

It's spreading through the hills around us very successfully near Melbourne :-(?

I've never heard it called Falling Star Mark ... very apt though. It grows well in the South West of England. There are some beautiful cultivars

you're right viv

or Montbretia

I think its a Crocosmia

It is then very unlikely to be an aloe: the genus is native to Africa. Please include any pictures of leaves and of the whole plant if you have them. Thanks!

The flower was spotted in the wild.

Hi deepskywim! Please provide some minimum information with your spottings, especially habitat. For instance, was this plant wild or cultivated in a garden? Thanks.

Dear Friend these flowers looks like Aloe vera flowers. But in this picture the leaves are not shown, So I suspect that this may be Aloe vera flowers. Another link- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aloe_vera
