Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Aloe dichotoma -Keetmanshoop, Namibia-21Aug2009-2.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on July 18, 2011. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2011-07-18. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! howcheng {chat} 18:55, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quiver tree
The Quiver tree (Aloe dichotoma) is a species of aloe indigenous to Southern Africa, specifically in the Northern Cape region, and Namibia. It derives its common name from the indigenous San practice of hollowing out its tubular branches to form quivers for arrows. One of the few examples of spontaneous forests of A. dichotoma is the Quiver Tree Forest, located north of Keetmanshoop, Namibia.Photo: Le Grand Portage

Pictures to consider

[edit]

I’d be glad if you could check the following pictures, maybe add them to the gallery within the article – and by the way check my provisional botanical classification. Thank you! -- User:Pradatsch (german speaking wikipedia 18:13, April 18th 2014 (CEST)
