@TwistedThreads · Answer

@KikisOasis yes I even neglected it forever but it would not die. So I decided to cut back all the old and repot the good parts of it first part of last year. Thank you.

My aloe tries to grow, but the cats are intent on keeping it trimmed 😂 She has survived them for three and a half years, though!

@Curry · Answer

This is mine! A hand-me-down from my mom, who has been growing aloe for probably longer than I’ve been alive haha

I have an aloe vera. She has given me so many pups (well over 20 in the 1.5 years I've had her) and I have gifted them to others 🥰
She has also saved my skin from being horrific looking by soothing it when I've had oil burns

I’ve had my aloe for years. I  have tons of succulents that do great, by though it’s staging alive, it is bit thriving as well as my others. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. It’s in the shade, well drained in terracotta. Not over watered.

@Hypsie · Answer

5 plants! Woah! Mine is single as a Pringle. Never had any offshoots. I bought him in the grocery store about 4 yrs ago. After I repotted him, he went wild! 🐙

@BJoyce · Answer

I can’t wait to snag an aloe plant for my balcony when I move next month! Yours is amazing!

@calvina · Answer

@dylan1stokes I’ll give that another try. But the last time I did it, they didn’t like it.

@Lara · Answer

I only have two small ones that are props from @AnnaLovesVoting, but my mom has some GIANT ones. 😅

@Kelly4444 · Answer

This is Lilith. She was my first and she takes seat of honor in our collection ❤️😁

@Kelly4444 · Answer

Yeah this her when I first got her a little after the pandemic started.

@Mia · Answer
