| It took a few years from a 6" pot, but worth the wait!
cameronii and gariepensis are finishing up.

| I bought a seedling of this (I think) in a 2" pot last year. It loves my Southern window and has been rosette-ing for a few months now yay! |

| That is wonderful. I have a Aloe ferox that started out a tiny little plant in a 4" pot that is now quite large. I can't wait to get it in the ground. Probably a few years away from being as impressive as your marlothii. |
Maireana sedifolia

| Also is that Maireana sedifolia in the picture with it? I need to get me some of that. |

| Yes that's Maireana sedifolia. I love that plant. You need some, yes. It's wonderful. Just so you know it's quite sprawly. |

| Here's a nice Question I just thought of, can these Aloes be propagated by leaf cuttings or the branches, whatever their called ? Now I know they pup but are generous enough to produce with leaf cuttings , I hope someone says YES!!! Greg |

| hoov, I've been admiring it several times - such a nice Aloe and it's rewarded your patience handsomely. Greg, This Aloe doesn't branch usually, and Aloes don't grow that way, unlike their relatives the Gasterias and Haworthias. |

| Cactusmcharris, thanks for answering, I had a feeling they didn't , I figured it would be to good to be true. Well I was just hoping it sure woulda been nice. Greg |

Beautiful! I'm just now starting to appreciate Aloes. I have a few...nothing special. But A. marlothii and A. plicatilis are 2 that I have to get my hands on.
