Propagating Aloe Somaliensis: Leaf Cuttings Only

Aloe Somaliensis doesn't produce offsets, so "splitting" isn't possible. Propagation is via leaf cuttings: cut a healthy older leaf, let it air-dry overnight, then insert cut-end down into porous mix. Keep barely damp. Rooting takes a month or more; new leaves appear later. Success isn't guaranteed, but it's the only method.

Don't confuse splitting (dividing multiple plants) with propagating a single plant. Terminology matters for clarity.
