Aloe cryptopoda (synonym: Aloe wickensii), sometimes called "Dr. Kirk's Aloe", [1] is a species of succulent flowering plant in the Asphodelaceae family. [2] It is found in southeastern Africa, from southern Tanzania, in the north, south to Botswana (Mokolodi Nature Reserve), [3] Eswatini (Hlane Royal National Park), [4] Mozambique, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. [5] [1] In South Africa (the likely southern limit of its distribution), the species is primarily found in the northernmost province of the country (Limpopo).
