a very informative video, I would remove dry lower leaves though...

Amazing and insightful video

What type of aloe is this? I have the same kind, but can't find the actual name of this type anywhere

Thank you for this video. I always sadly kill Aloe Vera but watching this has encouraged me to try again as I can see where I was going wrong. I recently had a spider plant that was quite heavily pot bound and was unable to tease the roots, I found a website that advised to soak the roots in luke warm water and tease them apart gently then afterwards keep the plant well watered so it can recover. I did this and was able to free the roots and replant in a much bigger pot and it looks as if it's recovering well. Is this a method you would recommend and if so are there circumstances in which you would NOT use this method and cut the roots as you have in this video? Thanks, Emma.

Thank you very much for your comment! I have not used the technique you describe, but it sounds a good one, and probably most suitable for small plants? The cutting method I used works well when the roots are very tangled together and difficult to separate. You may like to see this page on the RHS website which outlines more ways: www.rhs.org.uk/plants/types/perennials/dividing.

I have a fan aloe. It got too wet so is there any way to prop the single leaves?

[@AllotmentBook]

Sorry I can't answer your question - I've never grown a fan aloe!

My Aloe Vera won't stop growing. I had to give Aloe of them away, and couple weeks later I counted over 50 Aloe Vera baby plants in 1 pot 🙈
