I'd say the second one is either A. humilis or a hybrid of it.

I think the first is an Aloe bakeri hybrid. The second is the Aloe humilis x pratensis which isn’t very popular these days.
Especially interested in Mesembs. small Aloes and South African miniatures and bulbs.

Well that’s a sudden increase in popularity for Aloe Humilis.

Please excuse the first post which had some input from intuitive text…… but whose intuition was incorrect!

The humilis x pratensis is probably more often seen than pure humilis now and has been heavily propagated ( probably by tissue culture)
