      joolz,

      I am not convinced that is Aloe vera.
      Looks like some sort of hybrid to me.

      But nice plant anyway.

          The plant I bought as Aloe Vera looks like yours too Joolz, have we fallen for a succulent scam we may have to get the aloe, aloe, aloe boys in to investigate this ( sorry bad joke, but true my plant the same as yours!)
