It is very interesting @kez001uk these were all on the same spike, but they opened sequentially. Quite wonderful, isn't it?!

That’s not the aloe Vera that grows off of a woody stem, is it?? Remember my husband had brought me home a piece?

I still have ZERO luck with aloe. My son wanted 2 plants for Christmas, one was a Jade and the other an Aloe. The aloe is near death, already😩😬😢

For some reason this particular Aloe likes to bloom, @ripjuju
