Aloe hereroensis forms a compact rosette reaching up to 20 inches (50.8 cm) wide. Its smooth, pale blue-green leaves exhibit a gentle upward curve and are textured with white lines on top and distinct 'H'-shaped spots underneath. The leaf edges are lined with dark, small, sharp spines for protection. Blooms emerge in mid-winter to early spring, showcasing branching racemes with brownish-orange to pink flowers that widen at the base and taper towards the tip. The plant thrives in full sunlight and requires well-drained, alkaline soil. Its water needs are modest, demanding careful irrigation to prevent overwatering.
