Congminglaoshi, thanks for the potential source.
dmj, this variety is indeed aloides; this year they've been under a bank of fluorescent lights (6); last year, under a metal halide lamp they did well also. They are kept exclusively in the basement. The average winter temp down there hovers around 60 degrees F.
The variety I'd like to find and try (vividflora) have flowers of a turquoise green hue.
