Well, this isn't one of my personal designs...but a special gift from the Greatest Designer in the universe! This was the first time I have seen a common aloe vera houseplant bloom so wanted to share the pictures.

This shot was taken June 24, 2011.
I told the gentleman that gave my the start of this aloe that it was blooming and he asked me what I did to make it bloom.
"I don't know! But, apparently neglect serves it well!"
I had moved several houseplants to our office so the aloe has had a diffused northern exposure for several months so that change of environment may have made all the difference. Whatever the reason, I've been excited to share this special blooming moment!
