Dear Chris,
Greetings from South Africa. Ben here - I have pretty much most South African species if you are looking for something specific....
Not sure if you are willing but would very much like to trade for both - your A. Pearsonii and the A Bakerii x Aloidendron Barberae.
Take care,
Ben Truter

Hi Chris,
Thanks very much for your reply.
Our postal services can be extremely haphazard when our customs is involved, so best is to send very small parcel that is 'non-descript'. The difficulty is that even when one specifies the plant matter with all the relevant certification, my experience is that the legislation isn't applied. So small, undescribed parcels have worked best coming into South Africa. Going out, I use private companies who tend to do what they promise. Apologies that I cannot be more precise
Ben
