Lomatophyllum (Greek compound, referring to the bordered leaves). Liliaceae. A few species in the Mascarene Isls., with the habit and perianth of Aloe, but differing in the red-margined or cartilaginous- margined lvs. and fr. a berry. They are fleshy sub- shrubs with hermaphrodite fls. and introrse anthers as in Sansevieria, but differ in having declined hypogynous stamens and several ovules in a cell, whereas Sansevieria has erect stamens inserted on the throat of the tube and solitary ovules. They are probably not in commercial cult. L. borbonicum, Willd. (L. aloiflorum, Nichols.), the Bourbon aloe, is the one most likely to be found in amateur collections: st. 8ft., thick at maturity: lvs. about 3 ft. long, horny-toothed, bordered red: fls. yellow, with brown-red outside, about ¾ in. long. Mauritius. B.M. 1585 (as Phylloma aloiflorum). The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
