Look at those beautiful spirsls~

You mean on the echeveria? There’s an aloe that I really want, but which can be pretty expensive sadly, called the aloe polyphylla which are just stunning for their tight spiralling patterns. I’d love to have one.

The Aloe polyphylla appears to have grown two new leaves at once! :0 I’m wondering whether this means it’s going to break symmetry and start forming a rosette. At least I’ve heard (If I recall correctly) that around the 6 or 7th leaf they start spiraling.
