About Aloe humilis x 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. 🔥

To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Aloe humilis x erinacea after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Help! I’ve had this plant for so long and tried to research for hours and I have no clue what it is still. Is it a Hedgehog Aloe or some sort of Haworthia? 😢 the markings on the leaves and leaf shape don’t match most of the photos on Google and YouTube. I’m lost.

Whats your least favourite plant in your oasis and why? Do you have one? Tell me, I’ll keep it a secret I swear, the other plants will never find out 🤫 🤐 Mine are probably one of the 2 aloe Vera plants I have (tagged) and one of the 2 Chinese money plants that I have (I don’t know why I prefer one over the other but I just do!) Does anyone want some aloe plants 😅😅 #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #PlantSwap
