Q.My Question Is On Aloe Vera Leaves And Lack Of Teeth On The Edges.

Zone Windsor, Ontario | ajm added on May 1, 2020 | Answered

I saw you had some Aloe information on your site. One of my Aloe pots took a nose dive courtesy of a young cat. Most of the original plant was broken off except for 2 leaves, once which has since dried and fallen off. My question, the new leaves that have come up off the main root do not have any teeth along the edges, not that they have edges. They came up round and look like fingers. The other two in the pot are different variety I think. I was wondering if you could tell me why no teeth? Thank you

After researching, I didn't find anything other than it could be a different variety or it is a "sport," which is just a mutation.
