If you can move it over to the window, I know caravans don't often have wide window ledges you could try standing a mirror or even a sheet of mirror acrylic behind it. This would help you maximise the light.
It might be a suitable arrangement when you are not occupying the caravan.

Re: Identity required please
Thanks for the reply, I had a look at images of Aloe juvenna and I think it still looks closer to the Aloe humilis.
I put this down to the greater number of spines on the leaf surface as opposed to bumps.

Re: Identity required please
Thanks for the replies, I had a look at Aloe humilis and at some Gasteraloe images online. Probably not definitive but I think the leaf spikes look more like one of the Aloe humilis images I've seen.

Identity required please
I rescued these two today from our local cactus abusers ( trays inside, poor light bottom shelf etc). I have just this year started getting into non-cacti succulents so I am looking for some assistance in naming these as they are just labelled Aloe. I think one is Gasteria cv 'little warty'. Both in...

Re: Haworthia first aid advice required.
Thanks for the replies and advice, I was unsure about leaving or trimming the roots as thee root loss over the last two weeks was alarming. I will trim and dust with sulfur and as suggested repot it into a mineral substrate. I had suspected it was a hybrid of some kind, the leaves didn't look quite ...

Haworthia first aid advice required.
I usually grow just cacti and euphoria, but expanding my interest purchased what I believe to be a Haworthia truncata (labelled Echeveria π) from a well known garden centre back in late October. I kept it isolated indoors from my other plants where it seemed to thrive. Two weeks ago I decided to rem...

Re: Lophophora starting to rot -what do I do
Anytime I've cut into a cactus I've always followed with a dusting of Sulfur powder. It seems to keep rot or opportunistic fungi at bay. If you cut into the Lophos I would think to keep them a bit warmer than normal overwintering temperatures. Hope you save them
