    my aloe plant had babies!

    its pot was full of little aloe shoots poking up through the soil. i carefully pulled them out and put each one in its own little cup of potting soil.

    is there anything else i should do to encourage the growth & health of the little ones? looks like there's more coming up every day.

    They are called pups in the nursery trade. Just do what you are doing. If your plant was healthy enough to pup you are doing something right.
