A great assortment Gwen.. You will need a big pot for that Aloe Vera they breed like rabbits here I am always binning them I know its terrible but what do you do when the large pot is overflowing and they are going roots in the pebbles the pot is on.. Its a great plant to have all the same

Gwen the first pic the big green one with white freckles on the right with the spikes on the leaves
Its a great plant to have around I slice those leaves in half lengthways and rub it over my skin when the insects bite me, instant relief..
