Their flowers grow out of a large spike and can be shades of red, orange, and yellow. šŸ”„

Aloe deltoideodonta is very sensitive to wet soil, so choose a potting soil that drains very well and doesnā€™t retain too much moisture.

šŸ§ Troubleshooting

When troubleshooting a sad-looking houseplant, start by checking for signs of distress in its leaves, such as yellowing, browning, or drooping, which can indicate overwatering or nutrient deficiencies.

Inspect the soil moisture; too dry or too wet soil can cause problems.

Ensure the plant is getting the right amount of light, as too much or too little can stress it.
