Hey guys do you think my aloe is sick or there is something wrong with it? It was on clearance because it was slightly dying so I bought it a few weeks ago and it was going well but now it looks like the leaves are slightly turning orange in some areas:( not sure if this is normal :/ I’m a new plant mom so I’m still learning ðŸ˜
check the soil to see if he’s been over/underwatered and remember sometimes it just happens :-) sometimes plants shed dead leaves just like we do with hair
3 Likes I’m scared to over water it bc I don’t want it to get root rot and my window is east facing one so they don’t get too much direct Sun (maybe like 2 hours then they pretty much just in normal day light right in front of the window ). And I know with aloes you don’t want to over water it but I’m just lost of what I should do or test first :( thank you for the guidance though :)

Aloe is super resilient! I had one die but it had a new one growing on the side of it that is doing great! I agree that you should check if it’s been over/underwatered and if it’s been overwatered make sure to give it new soil. Then, just follow plantas advice and it’ll be fine.
2 Likes I repotted it right when I got it about 2 and a half weeks ago :( you think I should do it again just in case or will that hurt the plant
0 Likes This is what it looked like on june 24th :( you think it’s possible that the sun was too strong on it at first?
I’m not convinced that’s aloe. Looks like a hawthoria
1 Like When I bought it it said on the label aloe, to be honest never seen an aloe like that but I’m not sure :(
1 Like Mine is just barely coming back! I’m trying to establish a good watering schedule for it. I do see a similar texture on the leaves but because it’s so small still I can’t tell if it’s quite the same.
It kind of looks like a tiger aloe
