Interesting. Do we know its parents? I'm guessing Aloe aristata...

From above

My partner got me this from the little one stop shop nearby, I assume its a XGasteraloe.

People who call anything succulent a cactus. It annoys me.

Doesn't look right for aculeata, probably ferox or marlothii. Aculeata has white bases to the spines.

Pity. Wilko's is one of the only places I see Succulents for sale. It looks nice Get yourself across to York .... two street traders .... one outside St Helens church / Bettys tearooms .... the other in Parliament Street / Shambles market ... both daily ... with cacti and succulents .... some fine ...

Ah yes its accesible, I'm just logged out there.
