Is this an aloe?
+13
Trying to identify this plant. Bought with aloe. Love the way it has grown.
I don't think so, sorry
It has all the features of aloe. Looks just like it.
It looks like one but it could just be in the same family.
Sorry, that wasn’t very helpful! �
There are different varieties of aloe.https://www.pinterest.com/denys_florist33/aloe-species/
It's an Aloe, but not the "medicinal" kind.
It's a Bromeliad.
No that isn't an Aloe Vera plant but a relative. This is one of my an aloe vera plants.
this an aloe Vera plant.
Climbing aloe ciliaris maybe I have this same one but smaller
This plant is an aloe vera plant.
The first picture is bromeliad, not aloe vera plant. They look similar but are not.
the second picture is an aloe Vera plant, as you can see the second has rib ridges, this the indicator that it is aloe vera plant. Another way also to tell is by slicing a piece off. If it oozes gooey transparent thick gooey film then it’s aloe Vera plant.
I use mine for burns, works great! I have several of them and that one in the second picture is one of my small ones
! And they do multiply like a bunny!
Celestrialangel is correct: it IS in the aloe family—from South Africa but becoming popular here in the US. Aloe veras have many different cousins! A. ciliaris is a fun one.
Susan, i had quite a few and then got rid of them. But I should keep one. Aloe Vera is nice to use on your face once a month’.
Yes! They grow quickly, easily and are so beneficial for DIY cosemetic and even some health recipes. Google to learn more.
