I bought this 'aloe aristata' for my dear at christmas-time from Abby at kermodi living art . She is at Portobello West Market and there is something really special about how she chooses plants and pots together. Nature itself is so lovely and beautiful- Abby has a special way of finding these most amazing plants and then growing them in such a way that is truly an art in itself. What is also cool is that without a lot of care on my part, this little plant is now growing a little shoot from the centre and I think it's actually going to flower! I'll be sure to take a picture when it does as my blue thumb might be bursting with such pride that it might actually turn green.
