Aloe Plant Propogation

If you are referring to a sucker (that you call an "arm"), that should work. A well-established aloe in a pot will send out suckers (young shoots) that form a cluster of plants. Cut away the suckers with a sharp knife as close to the main stem as possible. The sucker usually does not have roots, but pot it up and they will grow their own roots. Avoid fertilizing the sucker for at least a year. Thanks! I will watch for the suckers..... |
