Can anyone help identify this type of aloe? I have three cuttings from the original plant that was given to my wife. They tend to grow upwards but cannot support their own weight and will break apart so I’m having trouble keeping them healthy. I feel like they should be growing out not up. If I knew what it was I was hoping I could maintain them better.
Probably. The sun exposure only helps you so much until the plant covers the soil and helps trap moisture, then it comes down to the soil mix and the material/color of the pot.
Aloe is stupid tolerant to neglect, I have had big ones I didn’t water for a year and they kept on trucking after a good soaking. On the other hand, I have had ones I gave away die in weeks because people kept watering them instead of letting them dry out between waterings.
