# What is this fella!! He came off a bigger , bushier looking plant…

What is this fella!! He came off a bigger , bushier looking plant that looks identical to this guy but way more of them! Planta is telling me it’s an aloe and I KNOW it’s not. The bigger plant he came from is tightly layered like a zebra succulent.

I think it’s an alworthia!

Thank you!! I put it in there as an alworthia ;) his name is still mystery boy though

This looks like a black gem alworthia, which I think the app calls a black gem aloe. I absolutely love these because it was the first plant I ever got!
