Aloe Vera Propagation

Hello again! How have you been enjoying the spring weather? I love it!

I just wanted to share a quick easy project with you. My Aloe Vera plant had a baby growing from it so I decided to separate it and make it into it's own plant.

Here it is in a terracotta pot I painted.


This is just showing the little baby I removed from the main plant. It doesn't have much for roots. There are only 2 tiny roots growing from the bottom, so I'm hoping it will survive the separation.



I painted the top of the pot black and the bottom white.


I decided to add a cutesy aloe vera quote with sharpie.


Here is the Baby with the Momma plant.


Propagation is such a great way to increase your plant count. It's always rewarding to grow a whole new plant!

A fun tidbit, when I decided I wanted to keep houseplants in our home, this Aloe Vera is the first plant I bought. My girls and I named it Charlie. 
I now have over 40 plants and I love them all!
