Nice plant. I think you need him. Gasteria glomerata would be my guess...

Thanks, Beth. That was quick, and correct. Hmmm, you are right, I might need him... They also had Aloe 'Pink Blush'. And I am not even into Gasterias and Aloes. Arrrgggg.

Oh well, you have to start somewhere! I can send you some small hybrid Aloes when the weather warms up...

I have started! Mesembs and cacti. But all those other plants are calling my name too... Small aloes sounds very tempting.

Oh yeah, you need the fatso, his blooms are fab.

Ok, ok, back there tomorrow! He has some nice pups too.

You can probably find this one in Ontario, actually, if you don't want to go back there . I have some tiny pups if you want to "raise it" yourself!

Beth is right, Gasteria glomerata is available. I bought one in fall, and saw them recently in GH. I can give you pup of A. rauhii...Beth has few nice ones too :) I do not remember seeing A. Pink Blush - maybe there are some around?

I have a prolific pinkish Aloe I've ever been able to ID with any certainty..

I saw that Gasteria today in Hamilton, I am not in Holland anymore, so going back is fairly easy ;-). My identification of A. 'Pink Blush' is based on what I saw, there was no name tag, but it had the pinkish edges and the white raised 'long dots'. Not much colour without strong light, but it was very attractive. I think I want only one Aloe. I was looking for 'Christmas Carol ', but this one might be even more attractive with its softer colours.

haha, well welcome back!

Here we are worrying you may be bying these, available in Ontario, plants in Holland....I was wondering about that since I noticed price in $...You came back to some winter weather again...(light snow here right now!)

No snow here (yet?). Beth and Rina, you did get my email?

If you didn't get the glomerata already... I can take a pup (or few) from mine in the spring and they are yours for free.

Please excuse the squirrel damage - I would give an undamaged one.

The flowers of G.g. are awesome; only therefore you need one

Kevin, I would love that. Thank you. Then I will leave the one I saw for another lucky buyer.

No problem. =)

Harry - The flowers are fun!
