Bob, you scare me!

There's only one clone of Doran Black. The most reliable would be that from ISI material. That year's catalog also provided the authoritative description, though I don't have the precise details to hand.

Cultivars can not be propagated from seed unless apomyxis occurs. This has not been reported in the genus Aloe. Even if a hybrid selfs the progeny are genetically different from the parent and so not that cultivar.
