Check out Mt. Elgon Aloe in bloom... BEAUTIFUL! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHjWeWamiMafarc

[@vaniajoseph4117]

Beautiful collection of Aloes

[@jodietran8281]

I love mountain aloe. Thank you for sharing!

[@frnk3b006]

8:10 This one is actually a hybrid between Aloe maculata and Aloe striata called 'Ghost'. You can tell because the colored margins are serrated or "toothed" and not "entire", like ribbon. Nice group of aloes, regardless.

[@petteralexis950]

Very beautiful Aloe plants

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Thank you very much!

[@cssarporrasc1136]

Wow!!! Great collection

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Thank you!

[@williamalvey632]

Great video loved your aloe collection I keep aloes in the uk but have to keep in a greenhouse with Gasterias and Haworthias

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Thanks for watching! It's awesome you can grow them in the UK.

[@georgiawilliams3460]

Love your collection. Aloes are my new obsession, great vid 👌

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Thank you very much.

[@mamaj6028]

Don't worry about the addiction, you have plenty of company ! 😍 I just scored a bunch of star aloes off clearance ! Love it. 😁

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

LOL. Awesome! I love plants on sale :)

[@moreofawave]

The healing alo is AMAZING. I was having an allergic reaction to something and i whiped it with aloe and IMMEDIATELY the swelling and welts went away. Also helps when earphone buds irritate my eardrum. Just a little on an ear cleaner and just around the opening (not inside)-immediate relief.

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Aloes are amazing plants! Thanks for sharing.

[@JamesEndo1]

Wow Paul, nice colection! Didn't know you collect other plants besides dragon fruit! Cool!

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Yes, thanks... I collect many plants. Grevillea are some of my favorite ones...

[@jyotinair3736]

love the mountain aloe, I just got a baby one, so beautiful, Also i came across spiral aloe, it was gorgerous, but too expensive, on my wishlist.

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

I agree! I love the mountain aloe. I found spiral seeds online. I am not 100% sure they are accurate, but it will be fun to find out. Thanks for watching!

[@garygilliam1890]

Beautiful aloe I collect my self I have 13 different ones

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Awesome, they are stunning plants. Thanks for watching.

[@ScaryFear]

Wow great garden. I'm new to Aloes. I just got some nice hybrids. I got one called Christmas Sleigh. What is the difference between that and Christmas Carol? Are they the same? Your collection is lovely and amazing. Could you show a wider shot of your birdbath aloes and explain how to make one? I have a stone bird bath that just evaporates all the time and isn't being used. Would be nice to give it a new purpose.

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Scary Fear Thanks! I think they are very similar, but I don’t have a Christmas Sleigh yet! It’s actually a fountain I turned into a succulent fountain. As long as there is good drainage, a bird bath should work fine. You may need to drill some holes for drainage.

[@arandomcanadian2948]

The aloe at 5:15 is a Aloe Barbadensis Miller and of course this variety is a edible type of aloe in existence

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Awesome! Thanks for the identification!!!!

[@ryohio4706]

Woah, you got your Quiver tree to grow outside in that cold of Temps? Thought I heard you say 34F°? I thought they didn't tolerate cold well at all so I've kept mine inside

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

We live in zone 9b and the frost is for a short duration. We got down to the low 30's several times this winter and they alll did fine, no damage at all.

[@stevenrix7277]

I only grow my aloes indoors because i live in Texas and they will get scorched in the heat. I have 1 aloe dichotoma and the classic ones. BTW i found your YT channel when i was looking for some bamboos videos ^_^

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Awesome! We are lucky to be able to grow so many varieties of plants in our region. I don't grow any aloes inside and thought the winter would be more destructive to aloe in Texas than the summer. Thanks for the information and comment.

[@stevenrix7277]

@@WhatPlantisthatPaul I live in Austin, South Texas almost with lots of wet clay soil during winters and extremely dry during summertime, and it barely freezes here, probably 9% of chances after February. Winter are usually mild here in the South of Texas, but summers are hell, extremely hot with high humidity and those are 3 months of hell for me. Here we grow a bunch of Agaves that can grow up to 9 ft tall and we grow that Texas cactus pear that spreads all over the place, there are over 4000 species of plants for Texas i would say. I am still learning on the Texan flora as I moved from France not that long ago.

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

@@stevenrix7277 That is so rad! My wife went to TCU and I've visited the area... I hope to visit Austin someday. Many aloes and most succulents are not root dependent. You can grow aloes successfully outside under 30% shade cloth or under a canopy of trees. In pots with good drainage and cactus potting soil, you can grow hundreds of varieties of aloes outside but your native soil (without amendments/ Perlite, etc) may limit your varieties. If you live in zone 9a, we are very similar... Zone 8b is more limiting. Wind may be another factor, but not so much with some aloe varieties.

[@luisl9910]

Unknown aloe shown towards the beginning is prob aloe zebrina, I have a bunch of them in my yard and they look pretty similar

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

I think you are correct! I did an episode on my group of Soap Aloe, but this one is different . en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aloe_maculata

[@lisefournie1012]

@@WhatPlantisthatPaul Well, I was going to say that it could also be Maculatas (since I own some, I could immediatly see the ressemblance) but well... too late I guess 😅 But what an amazing collection ! Great and interesting video ! 😁

@@lisefournie1012 Haha! Thanks for the kind words and for watching.

[@user-qw4zv6xr2x]

Hey Paul! Have you propagated your Aloe Ferox? If so, what was your method? i’m having issues propagating mine.

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

I have not tried it yet, maybe this summer? No pups off of it yet, either.

[@pipoypam3812]

How do you prevent tips from browning or drying?

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Good question. It seems like intense sun or cold can damage the tips, but as they get older and more mature, it seems to happen much less often to mature specimens in my yard.

[@charlottebailey873]

I have an aloe that I can’t seem to identify. It is 3 shades of green with white specks. Can you post more pics

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Send pictures to my email. [e-mail]

[@brokenbutterfly3178]

Any small-medium sized aloes you have that don't pup much?

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Aloe Kujo comes to mind...

[@joeyone4683]

I love Aloe Hercules .. I have about 9 on my property in menifee ca but the sun ☀️ beats the hell out them .... not good for high heat full sun... just too bad.

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Bummer they are so sensitive... I've seen many healthy plants in San Diego county. They will do better under a canopy of big trees in your area or a part sun environment. Hopefully they aren't too big to move. Good luck.

[@hazerobinson3469]

Funny, you pointed out how not all aloes are beneficial like aloe vera, when you were showing the variegated form of aloe arborescens.....I recently discovered that aloe arborescens has over 200 times the beneficial compounds than aloe vera has!! Super WOW!! Many rare forms are used medicinally in the villages where they are limited to as well. Amazing plants!! I may have a few rate varieties that you don't & am up for trades!!! I'm in San Diego and we have a mutual friend that recommend your KZbin channel to me last year.....I just don't remember who it was now! Feel free to hit me up in Facebook~ Haze Robinson 👍🏻

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

@@hazerobinson3469 So the Torch Aloe is super healthy? I know the Cape Aloe is too (besides aloe vera). Many more are beneficial as well. I didn't show all of are aloe varieties, so I may have some more to swap. I'll contact you on FB. Thanks!

[@hazerobinson3469]

[@brokenbutterfly3178]

8:00 Aloe aculeata

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Thank you, It's flowering right now, so that should be helpful too!

[@brokenbutterfly3178]

@@WhatPlantisthatPaul It could also be an aloe peglerae which is often times mistaken for aloe aculeata cause they both share similar characters (thorns). Now that it's flowering, you should be able to tell if it's an aculeata or peglerae.

[@jamarhelton1304]

The white spots around the spines are characteristic of aculeata.

[@vaniajoseph4117]

Do you have Aloe Macroclada

[@frankiebe2267]

Hey neighbor!! I'm in coastal SoCal, too! SUB'D!!! FYI... your plant at about 7:50 (right after your Aloe arborescens) might be Aloe aculeata if it isn't Aloe marlothii. A. aculeata also has the white nubs where the dark spines originate from. Those two, along with A. ferox, at certain stages of growth, are oftentimes confused with one another. BTW, your Mt. Elgon is a BEAUT!! Would you be up for a pup swap?! I'll contact you on fb.

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

Hi! I think you are correct. This aloe grows different than the others in my collection. It was sold as a "Lobster Claw Aloe" and looks very similar to the ones I found online. I think the flowers will help to identify it... I'd like to swap pups... I have many Mt. Elgon aloes :)

[@brackenwilson5891]

Do you have a mosaic aloe?

[@WhatPlantisthatPaul]

No, but I have something similar that I haven't identified...yet. Possibly one of the parent plants? Either way, the Mosaic Aloe is stunning and on my wish list :)

Thanks... I ordered spiral aloe seeds from amazon and just sprouted them today. I used the plastic bag and paper towel method in a window method.
