Babies everywhere

Bringing my succs inside, I noticed that there are few with babies:
possibly Sans trifasciata hahnii

    This aloe was already divided in July (separated 3 babies from mom), there are 8 (!) more now:

    Rina,
    Your first photo is correct but it's full name is Sansevieria trifasciata hahnii 'Jade Dwarf Marginated'. and a very nice one at that. If you start any from leaf cuttings, they will come out all dark called S.t.h. 'Jade'.
    Nice collection going.

    I agree, and I'm always in awe of anyone growing Aloe variegata so well (it seems most can but it remains beyond my ken). That Sans will bust your pot soon like a knockout punch.

    rina you give me so much hope with all your beautiful succ pics. I started this past spring with semps and succulents and am located in Toronto. Good to see you are growing them so nicely.

    Yep, that A. variegata gets out of control fast. I know 'cause mine became very out of control this summer...I need to split up some pups! The flower show it produces is progressively better each year.

    Beautiful Rina. I love aloes. They seem to like me and my non-care, care, I do not like plants I have to baby and they seem to like being ignored.

    Thank you for the correct name & growing tip; I'll definitely try to grow some from leaf cutting - never tried that with sans. Should it be repotted into larger pot or could stay as is? This is actually my first san; I also have a tiny s. cylindrica but it doesn't look like it's growing. Got it abt. 2yrs ago...here is the photo. My son is giving me his 2 pots of sans - do not know what they are yet. I'll post photo when I get them.

    That aloe variegate seems to be really easy - should you want pups, let me know.

    Good to hear from another Torontonian! It seems to me that less I fuss about them, better they are doing...

    Mine had first flowers this year and started pupping just about same time. It has been growing really good lately, seems to be pretty sturdy plant.

    Repeating myself - less fussing, better growing lately for me (not by choice-have been extremely busy & almost neglecting my plants-I think they got watered about 1 in 10-12 days, if!), but they actually look better to me.

    Thank you all for nice comments. Rina

    Rina,
    I would let the Dwarf Jade alone for now. Maybe come spring you can pot it up larger or seperate into many. The other Sans. looks to be ok but all of a sudden it will take off and do it's job of splitting pots. Keep potted into a small pot.

    Beautiful, well-grown plants! Love 'em!
