Baker aloe showcases a dense clustering habit, forming a vibrant mass of numerous rosettes, each compactly arrayed on short stems up to 1 foot (30 cm) long. The rosettes are composed of dark reddish-green leaves, each measuring 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) long, which are noticeably recurved and adorned with light green spots and distinctive pink, toothed edges. In the autumn season, baker aloe produces slender, unbranched spikes reaching 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) tall, crowned with delicate flowers. These blossoms transition from pale yellow buds to an exquisite pale apricot base, culminating in scarlet hues suffusing upward while the upper flower parts remain yellow, complemented by slightly flared green tips.
