The present invention provides a method for producing a true-to-type clone
of an Aloe b.alpha.rb.alpha.densis mother plant by selecting an Aloe
b.alpha.rb.alpha.densis mother plant; isolating a meristematic explant
from the plant; culturing the meristematic explant in initiation medium
to generate shoots, where the media lacks hormones; culturing the shoots
in proliferation and elongation medium to generate elongated shoots,
where the proliferation and elongation media comprises benzyl adenine
(BA) and indole butyric acid (IBA); culturing the elongated shoots in
rooting medium to generate plantlets, where the media lacks hormones; and
culturing the plantlets to product a true-to-type clone of the Aloe
b.alpha.rb.alpha.densis mother plant.
