With proper sun exposure, the leaves can take on the color purple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aloe Christmas Carol can reach a height and width of 15cm (6\u201d) and produces red-pink flowers in the fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The adorable succulent is a hybrid that was developed by Kelly Griffin with Aloe \u201cDoran Black\u201d as the parent. This means Aloe Christmas Carol has its roots in Madagascar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aloe Christmas Carol belongs to the Asphodelaceae family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_46 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\"><\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"ez-toc-toggle-icon-1\"><label for=\"item-69f1e480eb21a\" aria-label=\"Table of Content\"><span style=\"display: flex;align-items: center;width: 35px;height: 30px;justify-content: center;direction:ltr;\"><svg style=\"fill: #36af73;color:#36af73\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #36af73;color:#36af73\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseprofile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/label><input  type=\"checkbox\" id=\"item-69f1e480eb21a\"><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/aloe-christmas-carol\/#general-information\" title=\"General Information:\">General Information:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/aloe-christmas-carol\/#how-to-grow-and-care-for-aloe-christmas-carol\" title=\"How to Grow and Care for Aloe \u201cChristmas Carol\u201d\">How to Grow and Care for Aloe \u201cChristmas Carol\u201d<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/aloe-christmas-carol\/#how-to-propagate-aloe-christmas-carol\" title=\"How to Propagate Aloe \u201cChristmas Carol\u201d\">How to Propagate Aloe \u201cChristmas Carol\u201d<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/it\/aloe-christmas-carol\/#frequently-asked-questions\" title=\"Frequently Asked Questions\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"general-information\"><\/span>General Information:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Also known as: Christmas Carol<br>Plant Family: Asphodelaceae<br>Origin: Madagascar<br>Height: 15cm (6\u201d)<br>Exposure: Full to partial sun; 6 hours per day<br>Water Needs: Typical succulent needs; water only when the soil is completely dry.<br>Soil Type: Standard potting soil mix with added ingredients such as turface and crushed granite.<br>Soil pH: 6.0 to 8.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-grow-and-care-for-aloe-christmas-carol\"><\/span>How to Grow and Care for Aloe \u201cChristmas Carol\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re thinking about a type of succulent plant for your garden or for the indoors, you can\u2019t go wrong with Aloe Christmas Carol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Succulent hobbyists popularly use Aloe Christmas Carol as a table arrangement during the \u201cmost wonderful time of the year\u201d. It can also be used as ground cover or as part of your rock garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a slow-growing succulent that is easy to grow for provided you closely follow our simple care tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sunlight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It might be identified with the \u201cStar of Bethlehem\u201d but Aloe Christmas Carol needs the morning sun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plant Aloe Christmas Carol in an area in the garden that gets 6 hours of sunlight every day. The succulent will thrive in direct exposure but will do fine with partial sunlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avoid exposing Aloe to the rays of the afternoon sun as the scorching heat can burn its beautiful leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When grown indoors, place Christmas Carol near a window that gets 4 to 6 partial sunlight per day. If this is not possible, buy a Grow Light and give Aloe regular exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Watering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Aloe-\u2018Christmas-Carol-succulent.png\" alt=\"Aloe \u2018Christmas Carol\u2019 succulent\" class=\"wp-image-3526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Aloe-\u2018Christmas-Carol-succulent.png 300w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Aloe-\u2018Christmas-Carol-succulent-180x300.png 180w, https:\/\/www.aboutsucculents.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Aloe-\u2018Christmas-Carol-succulent-7x12.png 7w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Aloe Christmas Carol requires the typical watering needs of succulent plants. It grows better when given less water. If you overwater the soil, the plant\u2019s roots will rot and this will lead to the development of a fungal infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always check the dryness of the soil before giving Aloe water. The best way to know if the soil is dry enough is to insert a stick. Pull out the stick and if its end feels dry, water the soil until it\u2019s fully soaked through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Christmas Carol will have a lighter watering schedule during the winter months as the soil tends to retain moisture longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pot and Soil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Aloe Christmas Carol is not a cold-hardy plant. If the temperature in your region falls below -1.1\u00b0 C (30\u00b0 F), it would be best to plant Aloe in a pot that you can easily move from the garden to inside your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose a pot made from ceramic or terracotta as these materials support the timely evaporation of moisture from the soil. Also, make sure that the pot has a drain hole with a mesh cover at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plant Aloe in a standard potting mix and add ingredients such as turface and crushed granite to improve the level of drainage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fertilizer is not a must but a big plus to give the soil extra nutrients. You can fertilize once during the growing season but never during winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-propagate-aloe-christmas-carol\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-to-propagate-aloe-christmas-carol\"><\/span><strong>How to Propagate Aloe \u201cChristmas Carol\u201d<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Aloe Christmas Carol will give you the gift of offsets to make it easier for you to propagate the species of succulent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method 1: Offsets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 1: Gently pull out the offsets growing near the base of the plant.
