Aloe cooperi is a South African grassland aloe discovered by William Burchell in his early travels in South Africa. It was rediscovered by Thomas Cooper, after whom it was named. Grass aloe occurs in moist habitats and dry rocky areas, mainly in Natal, Swaziland, and Mpumalanga. The plant grows singly or in small groups from offshoots at ground level. Plants may be stemless or short stemmed up to 6 inches tall. The leaves are often yellowish green with the upper surface usually unspotted, though occasionally they have a few white spots lower down. The thin, grass-like, succulent leaves are held in a fan shape and grow 2-feet tall. The inflorescence is simple and bold; the flowers vary in color from greenish-cream to apricot and salmon pink. The blooming stalks grow to 3 feet tall and bear very attractive 1½-inch flower heads. Hardy to 10 degrees Fahrenheit, Cooper's aloe attracts nectar-feeding birds such as sunbirds and hummingbirds and is deer resistant.

알로에 쿠퍼리는 남 아프리카공화국의 초원에서 윌리암 벌첼에 의해 처음 발견되었는데, 토마스 쿠퍼가 재 발견하면서, 학명이 쿠퍼의 이름을 따라 지어졌습니다. 6인치 정도로 키가 작고, 잔디같이 생겼습니다. 꽃대는 3피트까지 솟아 올라 연한 크림색이나 살구색 같은 꽃을 피웁니다.
