    Hello,
    Here is a plant with flowers seen in Namibia.
    I thought it was an agave but isn'it an aloe ?
    Thank you

    It would be much more likely for it to be an Aloe. Especially if in the wild as Agave would not be native there. Looks more like aloe with the orange red flowers and the leaves look fleshy. Aloe hereoensis maybe?
