Incredible how fast you grow 'em from seed, Tim.
Very pretty color pattern.

Hi Barb,
the Aloe seed from Cameron is from 2 yr ago.......it's the plan green Aloe next to the Yucca trunk. The Aloe in the front of the photo is A. variegata.....which is another hardy one. I dig up the variegatas in Dec and keep them in the garage for the winter. They look great and place them into the ground in spring............very easy Aloes.

Great work, Tim! Be prepared for it to die down to the ground in cold winters, as it's a "grass" Aloe. It should resprout in the spring though!

Hi Cameron,
I'll be planting the other Aloes soon too. I took them home (from work) and the strong sun burn't them. 😥 They'll come back. I'm somewhat surprised since they get direct sun at my office but it's through a glass window.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Busy summer, Tim, thanks.
Hope yours has been good.
From your photos, looks like everything at your place is in Overdrive.
Big Boy's...well...big. 😆
The carpenter was here yesterday and said "he won't fit in the hut". 😕
Must've been the 8 inches of rain in June...so rare here.
Will get some photos up soon.
