Aloe bulbillifera

Post by Herts Mike »

This Aloe does not flower very often for me but is in flower now.

Here is the unusual flower spike with the plantlets on the lower half and buds on the upper half.

Thats very unusual or do other aloes do this ?.
A good method of propagation seed and plantlets all at once

Not that I know of Tina. Incidentally I think mine is the variety paulianae as it only has plantlets on the main flower stem which distinguishes it.

It's a Madagascan Aloe.
