Lo and behold! I followed through with the task I said needed doing last week! It’s a miracle! I repotted the three glass jars of aloe, removing the bottom layer of pebbles. It’s still not the best pot option, lacking drainage holes, but it’ll do for now.

Meanwhile I added a pebble layer on top of the soil for two of the snake plants. The leaves were tilting in an alarming manner, being so tall and large but still lacking sufficient grip with their roots. The rocks are helping to prop up the leaves while they establish themselves, but without ‘burying’ them in soil.

And as a treat, here’s a look at the progress so far with the hyacinths outside.
