Aloe Vera Flower

My house have a pot of Aloe Vera plants. When it started to have little Aloe Vera, my mom would cut the old big juicy Aloe Vera out to make Aloe Vera drinks. So, I never knew that Aloe Vera has the ability to flower. So, I was really surprised when I saw spikes growing out of the Aloe Vera plants.

There were two plants on the same pot. I think both flowered at around the same time. By the time I noticed this, some buds already changed colour, not the earliest stage of flowering. I think the earliest stage must look like wheat plant. Hahaha! 

Plant A: early stage of the bloom (10th June 2015)

Plant B: early stage of the bloom (10th June 2015)

In one week time, all the buds bloomed into red / orange flowers. Some of the petals already dropped too. It's so fast.

Plant A: the flowers turning red (17th June 2015)

Plant B: the flowers turning red (17th June 2015)

In one more week time, all the petals dropped and only a stick left on the plant, it's quite sad, life's so short!
