    Not good on succulents but maybe an aloe vera

    I think it looks like an aloe ... but there are quite a few different ones ... 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Me neither, I only know the typical aloe which was also in the pot - they have all gone really big 😊
    or I could be wrong & this one isn’t an aloe 🙈 
    so much to learn! 

    Thanks

    Thanks Dovefromabove - I’ll google types of aloe & see if I can find it, at least I’m a step closer to the species 😊

    Thought at first it was Haworthia , but more likely to be one of the many Gasteria cultivars.

    I don't think it is an Aloe either, I also thought it looks like a Haworthia or Gasteria, or perhaps even a hybrid between the two.
