Here's the aloe vera on Saturday, January 23 -you can tell the bloom has grown! I did some research on the internet, and aloe's will bloom when the plant is mature. This is news to me; apparently I've never had a mature one - this is cool! If anyone has ever had an aloe bloom, let me know how your's went. I would be curious to know. Thanks for looking!

Interesting bloom on my houseplant!

We have an interesting event at our house this past week; our aloe vera plant has grown a bloom! I've had many aloes through the years, and none of them have ever bloomed, so this is a new experience for me. Here's what it looked like on Sunday when we first noticed the bloom - it's very fleshy just like the leaves.
