Aloe polyphylla update

You may remember my post on the non-spiralling aloe polyphylla.   You can see the posts here. It has had a good summer so far, the extra water has meant no brown tips to the leaves, which is a first.

The big news is that there is the first signs of a spiral.


It is like one of the hidden pictures, sometimes it leaps out, other doesn't seem to be there.

It has been a long wait, I'm sure most spiral much earlier than this. As long as it gets there in the end everything is good.

    That's great! Keep posting updates...I just got a small one with of course no signs of spirals and now I have a bit of hope. I do see a bit of it here! Hopefully mine will grow to be as handsome as this is.

      Most spiral a lot smaller than mine, so hopefully you wont have too long to wait.

    It looks really good, no brown tips so you are watering right. So good to see a healthy one. Mine hangs on...

      Thank you, It has been watered this year and is responding. With your drought I can see how these may not look their best
