Thats a really BEAUTIFUL Aloe Ana :-D I LOVE the stunning pinky red teeth all along the edges, AWESOME repotting and it looks so wonderful in the ceramic pot, thanks so much for sharing the fantastic repotting with us, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and CAFFEINE and PLANT POWER to Las Vegas for a super Sunday today XXXX
Sorry for the late comment, Ana. That’s a lovely looking Aloe. Looks awesome in its new pot 😊 Thank you for sharing with us as always. Have a wonderful day from Edith & myself 🌵☀️🌼🌺🌸🏜☕️
Dear Cactus Caffeine. Just thought I would say thankyou for your efforts and excellent videos. I am a beginner with cacti and your videos are a great reference. Everything I have tried from your videos has worked. I started growing Cacti and Succulents as I really do not have much garden space. Thankyou.
Hi Anna , My name is Carolyn and I live in central Mississippi. I love your program . I also collect cactus and aloes . I have a swordfish aloe about the size of yours that’s also in bloom now and mine has not produced offsets either . The swordfish is my favorite of all my aloes . I hope we do eventually get some offsets 😊
My aloe swordfish is about as big as yours and it has three offsets around it. Swordfish is a pretty good size aloe, but I think you will still be happy with its eventual size. Maybe they will offset quicker in a smaller pot.
Oh! Now I’m looking forward to see some offsets from mine. I can always restart offsets to keep a smaller Swordfish if the mother plant gets too big. Thank you for that info! ☺️
Absolutely beautiful! Youve encouraged me to get going on my cacti...im in DC so my xmas cactus, thanksgiving etcetera do super well with the higher humidity. Been focused on those lately. Im due for something new though, any suggestions???
Haworthia and Aloes don’t seem to mind high humidity as long as their soil goes dry at times. Your weather is perfect for all types of Epiphytic cacti. Those I can’t grow successfully here in the desert. You may also want to try Gymnocalycium and Astrophytum. Just make sure they stay dry longer than your Thanksgiving cactus.
I have had two of the Swordfish Aloes for just over two years. They are in two different large/wide arrangement planters with several other types of succulents. I am surprised how much they have grown but they have not over taken the planter by any means…yet. Mine were about four inches in height when I first got them and I would say that they are more like eight inches tall now. This is the first year that they have grown bloom stalks. They had some pretty little orange flowers on the stalks. When the flowers were dead and I cut the stems off of them one of them grew another stalk a couple of months later. I keep my plants inside under grow lights so maybe they have no idea what the seasons are. I am going to redo the arrangement pots. I wonder if I should put one of them in a pot by itself to see if it grows larger! Probably being in a pot with other succulents has kept them moderately smaller.
Hi Ana, thanks for the video. I have one as well it does grow bigger than the other colorful aloes but it is not a tree aloe. It will pup and the growth habit on this aloe is like the aloe arborescens, you can easily pull off the pups and replant them. I just recently planted mine in the ground because I want it to grow bigger, and that color when it stresses is amazing. have a great day.
Ah, like Aloe arborescens! That gives me an idea now. Good to know that it will eventually produce pups. I can always restart with the pups to keep my aloe at a manageable size. Yours sounds very promising in the ground. I think it will look good as a clump, too! Thanks for sharing your knowledge about this Aloe! 👍🏼☺️
I have something with the same shape and color, but it offsets readily and remains very small when compared to yours. It might be a different hybrid which looks the same but is smaller. By the way, you can use the raised area in the background of your video to install potted aloes which grow large and maybe plant few in the ground. It is a good area for desert bonsai trees and more cacti.
Thanks! I’m being careful with what I plant in ground in my garden as it gets very hot there during summer and freezing in the winter. But if this aloe develops offsets, I may just take the chance with the mother aloe and plant it in the ground as you suggested. 😊
I love your wonderful channel, Ana ! I have 8 cacti and they are all well loved. and I have learned so much from your channel. They are inside now because I live in Pennsylvania and the temps are becoming chilly. Do you advise watering them on occasion throughout the long winter here? Thank you!
I give mine a little sip of water even during the winter. My climate is too dry to completely withhold water. If you have heater inside the house, your cacti may not go completely dormant and thus may require a little water during winter.
I have a massive aloe like this but it’s yellow instead of red. It’s a pain here in Ohio- having to bring it inside and hope my cats don’t poke their eyes out lol. Mine has a beautiful offset too.
I changed my name again 😅 because I finally started making videos of my collection (in spanish). I started with my Aloes 🙈 and then with the Aloe hybrids that I have created. For now, Purple Haze x castilloniae is the best cross I made.
I love this aloe it's beautiful! It's been in like the high 80s to low 90s here still pretty hot for late October is it bad to keep watering all my cactus during this fall season? I thought it is still important to water consistently in this heat since they 🌵 seem to be responding positively to it. When should I stop watering so much ? When the days get to be at max temp of the 60s?
80s-90s is still warm. You can still water as long as you let them go dry in between waterings. Aloes grow during cooler temperatures so I continue to water them (sparingly) during winter. But you have to consider your humidity. If you have high humidity, then I would cut back on watering your cacti. Here in Las Vegas, I do not totally stop watering even during winter. I give them a sip every now and then.
This is off topic but, I'm going to move to the SW desert area. Las Vegas is a consideration. What do you find that is hardest to live with besides the heat and wind? I will not mind that. What is hardest to live with other than that?
Pollen allergens. It is seasonal but I take my allergy meds sometimes daily during high pollen season. Other than that, it is really the dry air. I get nose bleeds. But having a humidifier in the room helps. Wether it is summer or winter, our humidity is always very low. But the positive side of that is we don’t sweat a lot. 😉 Good luck! Las Vegas is a fun city to be in. There is always something going on.
Yeah I had nose bleeds when I was there too. I do have allergies (who doesn't) but I have them when it's humid. When it's dry, I do really well.@@CactusCaffeine
What a beautiful aloe! Looking forward to a video of you aloe collection!
I’ll try to make one soon! 😃
I love your mug
Thank you! I love how colorful it is, too!

No worries Daz. I’ve been pretty busy lately taking care of my dad. I have yet to keep up with everyone else’s videos. 🙂👍🏼

So nice of you! Thank you so much and I wish you the best of luck in your garden. Cheers! ☺️🌵☕️

Thank you! Cheers!
Wow, so beautiful! It's a huge Aloe. I love It😍!
Thanks Vanessa! Merry Christmas 🎄
@@CactusCaffeine Merry Christmas dear friend 😘✨💝
The coral edges are so pretty
Coral! That’s the color. Lol! I couldn’t quite think of the word. 😄
I just purchased one of these plants and I thank you so much I've gotten so much information from you that I did not know
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants lovely collection beautiful garden lovely
I have this one, and yes they have plenty of pups
Oh, mine is still a loner to this day. lol
May napanuod po kasi ako sa online may aloes dw po nadi nagkaka baby tlg...nagtitinda po sila ng mga aloes cactus po agave po nila magaganda😍
Cor, I would have said that was an Agave if I hadn't seen the title 😮 It's lovely Ana 🙂🙂🌵🌵
I would recommend planting that aloe right into the ground. I mean its big enough and it will grow faster in the ground.
Beautiful Aloe Ana! Well done as always with repotting! Have a beautiful Sunday! 🌞🏜🌵🌺
Ang laki na niya ate anna!
I want this aloe!!!!
Can you give me name of a good nursery in your area that i can order this type of aloe?
Beautiful colors.
Hi Ana . I have this aloe . Mine has an offset . I will send pictures tomorrow
Wonderful! Looking forward to seeing your picture
Beautiful aloe.
I'm gonna be on the lookout for one of those. Thank you for the video.

Thank you for your kind words. 🥰 Some viewers said theirs has pups! So we have something to look forward to on our Aloe Swordfish!

I love ❤ that aloe! Very different, but where did you find it?
It’s either from Lowe’s or Home Depot. It is an Altman hybrid.
@@CactusCaffeine thank you! 😊

El áloe vera swordfish no se puede usar medicinalmente??
I’m not sure about that.
您好，很喜欢您的视频，芦荟，在我们这边，控形的话，就7/3,颗粒多谢，这样不会长太大，我也是不修根的，直接从盆里提起来，放到更大盆里，不用换苗！

Yeah I had nose bleeds when I was there too. I do have allergies (who doesn't) but I have them when it's humid. When it's dry, I do really well.@@CactusCaffeine
How many different aloes do you have now I have 22 and I do have this one but no pups yet maybe soon and yes I do use chicken poop on all of mine
I have not counted exactly but I would say around 20 as well. ☺️
I have a smaller aloe like this....idk what the name of it is!! Ummmm😮😮???
Put it in the ground!!
Haha! Baby steps. I’m not ready for a giant Aloe in my yard. 😉
