Please help!! Aloe

5 years ago

I have a dying aloe plant that my friend had given me to try to revive. I checked for root rot and didn't see any signs of it in the roots at all. I tried to propagate a broken leaf that fell off with no luck so far. I saw no signs of overwatering at all. I genuinely don't know what else I can do.

Someone, please help me, I would really like to try to bring her back.

Difficult to discuss without seeing a pic of the plant, try insert it as a comment if you could not in the first post. Aloe don't propagate from leaves so it's not surprising it's not working for you.

Agreeing w/ Alain.

Sorry but Aloes won't propagate from leaves, no point in keeping up w/ that.

One needs an actual division of the plant or a pup (a baby Aloe plant) to reproduce these plants.

A pic showing the base or crown of the plant will likely show us if it's beyond saving or not.
