Aloe Erinacea
About Aloe Erinacea
Many people are familiar with Aloe vera, but this genus of plants contains tons of other beautiful succulent plants that come in all sorts of colors! Their succulent leaves evolved to store water in dry climates, which makes them a perfect fit if you're a busy plant parent. With great care (and a lot of sunlight) you may even see your Aloe bloom! Their flowers grow out of a large spike and can be shades of red, orange, and yellow. 🔥

How to fertilize Aloe Erinacea
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Aloe Erinacea after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I wasn’t getting enough light in my room so I put him outside but it was too hot for him and he’s starting to turn brown and be frail and I don’t know what to do #AloeVera

This is my partners tigertooth aloe. He has had her for years from a small baby succulent. We recently repotted, and the plant became sick extremely brown,wilting. We were super worried about her as she was ill for around a month and looking worse and worse, worried we ruined her roots in the process. We moved her and left her, didn't water, waited for her to adjust. Fast forward to now.. she is super green and healthy. Living proof that sometimes you just need patience for a bit of rivaval and recovery 🥰🥰
