      Sadly, as my Hedgehog is actually outside, a series of hard freezes zapped much of the plant (along with it's now limp bloom stalk). This was the first time it had ever attempted a bloom, so it is a disappointment.

    This is certainly a time of year for the aloes to boom-if you treated them well this winter. You obviously did. Many of mine are in sad shape but one that was inside is also flowering. Hope your garden survived our terrible winter.
