Pink Blush Aloe
About Pink Blush Aloe
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 Pink Blush Aloe
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 Pink Blush Aloe after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

⁸ #PinkBlushAloe My pink blush aloe is getting crispy on the ends of its leaves and has lost a few of its leaves on the bottom of the plant. What's up with it? #

Scarring/leaf deformation You can see on the right hand underside of the front most facing leaf, there is a large spot which I assume to be scarring, but it’s also sort of pinched the bottom of the leaf upwards to create a sort of crater in the underside. It kinda “pinches” the thick bottom all the way up so it’s nearly flat with the top of the leaf in that one spot. Is this due to too much sun? Too much water? Does it need to be trimmed all the way down past that “crater” or will the rest of the leaf survive fine in spite of that seemingly dead spot?

My pink blush aloe was pink when I got it 2 years ago. Then it lost its color and it is green all the time. What am I doing wrong? I would love it to get pink edges again. #PinkBlushAloe

Aloe identification 🙋♀️ Hello aloe enthusiasts. I have aloe that gets dusted with pink throughout the spring and summer and goes green in the winter. Is it a variety of “Christmas Carol” aloe? Why does Greg say that Christmas Carol aloe is “super rare” houseplant? Is there another type of aloe that this could be? Welcoming any short, or long explanations lol. 🙏 Thank you happy houseplanting🌿 #AloeVera

Do I need to separate the babies? #AloeVera #flowerpower #HappyPlants #SucculentLove #SucculentSquad

How do I separate the baby? When I repotted her the baby aloe was super small but now it’s a little bigger I think I should separate it and put it in its own pot? Or should I leave it? And how do I separate it? Just cut the roots?? Help!! #BlushAloe #SucculentSquad #AloeVera #HappyPlants #NewGrowth

Why is my blush aloe losing its pink? Is this from too much light or too little?? She was very pink when I got her in November and now she’s mostly green. Is there any way to reverse this? Other than the color change she looks pretty happy. She sits pretty close to a grow light.

Is this good or bad?? 🤣 Firecracker/ blush aloe question: I was worried about the desert corner being too dark until I realized I had that grow light on the lowest setting. I cranked it to max yesterday and this morning my aloe looks totally different. It was really flat before and now it seems like it’s lifting all its arms up?? Is this bad or good? First two pic are when it was flatter (they aren’t great) and last two are this morning when Ruby started raising the roof 🙆♀️
