Hello, happy evening. Blessings to all of you in this lovely community of gardeners here. I'm very happy to share this post with you, where I'm going to talk about one of the plant species I have in my garden.
.
I wanted to photograph them and show you each of the plant species, or Howorthias, that I currently have in my garden. While these plants are known as aloe vera, they are very versatile, as they work as companions alongside cacti and succulents. Remember, these plants look like aloe vera, but they vary in color, shape, and texture. Right now, I have approximately seven species that have been consistent in their evolutionary growth. Here, I'll show you some of them, and I wanted to specify the scientific names of each one and the characteristics they represent.
.
Remember that we can have these types of plants in shady places, they do not necessarily have to hit them directly in the sun for them to grow in good conditions, other tweaks that I can give them so that they are better preserved in their growth and evolution is to water them frequently, every time you see the substrate dry you should apply water. Since they stay hydrated and maintain their original form, which is that aloe vera that we commonly know as wild, they come from there, they are like their roots only that they vary in textures, colors and shapes.
.
So well, here are some of the species that I have in my garden, I hope you like them and if any of you have any recommendations that you can give me for their great care, I am here waiting for your comments.

Your plants are so nice and really I like small plants like that too, they look so cute and a bit like aloe vera. They make me want to collect more plants like yours.
