As Cicero said, “Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.”
Today, all the blossoms had fallen from the spike.
The flower spike was removed, and the aloe vera was potted in some new soil, out on the deck. Eight "babies" were separated from the mother plant and given starter pots of their own.
"Octuplets"!

As Cicero said, “Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.”
We had neighbors. When they moved away three years ago, they gave us an aloe vera. Now the aloe has multiplied (octuplets). I would bet we can find homes for the eight baby aloes by the end of August. Full-bore cycle of life.
Also, the Empty Nester may look kinda like a spent force tonight, but as The Song of Mehitabel goes: "there's a dance in the old dame yet."
