When my mature Aloe Barbadensis grows too long, I cut the entire root system, and set the root system aside to callus over and then replant the root system horizontally in the soil to grow pups for propagation 👍
Great tip!
I wish I could see you do this because mine is too long. I was just gonna buy a bigger pot 🙈 idk how to care for it but I want to!
@@TheKatarinaGiselle Are you referring to the root system being too long? If so cut it in half or depending on the length cut them in 6 to 7 inch segments but leave about 3 inches of stem on the Aloe plant itself and then wait a day for both ends to callus over and then plant them in different pots if you want, I would like to clarify as well that I clean up the root stem as much as possible and get the dried leaf off around the stem to expose the flesh and root nodes then plant them
Thank you for this video. I always thought that all Aloe plants were Aloe Vera plants. Mine looks just like your Aloe Dorothea. I had no idea that’s what it was. It was great to learn something new 🙂
So glad that you learned something! Yes, and interesting to note that there are over 400 varieties and hybrids of aloe. They are such a cool plant. 💚
WOW! Thank you so much for all the info! You have such beautiful plants!
You are so welcome! And thank you ☺️

Have you had any aloe Vera blooms?
Can you take one Leaf by its and get it to grow roots
That was very helpful. I took a lot of notes.
Do you have any information about the care of air plants (tillansia)? I have 4 different varieties. Several have flowered and grown pups. I've read that the mother plant dies after it grows a pup, but that hasn't happened to mine yet, and it's been a couple of years. It's one of my favorite plants, and I want people to understand how to display (no hot glue to shells please!) and care for them. Thank you
I need to know more about air plants myself. My mother has a wonderful collection, maybe we can work together on a video.
Ive repotted my Aloe, i had 1 pup so i took it off and repoted it to. Now they are both in my greenhouse and not doing well. The leaves are curling in and the plants are galling over and thry are a purple brown color.
How are they doing now?
They don't look good at all
@@martinwhitehurst9893 oh no! I'm I'm sorry that's happening, may they recover and thrive ❤✊
Is the soil fast draining?
Yea it seems to bei have it in a mixture of sand and potting mix
I can’t keep these alive 😭
Oh no! As long as they are kept fairly dry and warm and with some bright light they should do well. I hope that helps and good luck!
What is your care routine?
How to heal a sunburned Aloe vera plant
Unfortunately, as with most plants, sun damage on leaves are permanent, but luckily aloe are really hardy and will grow new leaves, and if the light is right, they can grow back pretty fast. I had some terrible leaf damage from aloe aphids and ended up cutting off the damaged leaves. The plant looked a bit sad for a month or two, but is coming back beautifully now. Most aloe can take hot direct sun if they're used to it. For the future, slowly ease them into the sun if they have been in lower light conditions. They will eventually do well in the direct sun.
For propagation, I use rooting powder for plants 🪴, Easy Root - Cloning and Rooting Hormone
