Your plant went into shock. You may have over fertilized. The new potting soil has a lot of nutrients in it so you should not have added fertilizer. Also, you may not have the plant in an area that is conducive to recommended light and care. Call the nursery or dealer you purchased the plant from and explain the situation, they may have an exact solution although I doubt it. However, I say 'nothing ventured, nothing gained.'...(Answered by Notorious)

Aloes like living in cramped quarters, but after a couple of years, they do need to be transplanted. Spring is a good time to transplant houseplants into bigger pot. Randall Parks, an aloe expert, recommends using a planter that is wider than it is deep as aloes have a shallow, spreading root system. Check that the planter has a drainage hole and add a layer of gravel at the base. Parks recommends on his Web site (http://freealoeplant.tripod.com) using a potting mix to which you add sand or perlite. You can also purchase and use a mix meant for cacti. To transplant a big plant, let the soil dry as ...(Answered by happilymarried_101803)

Treat these buds as the harbingers of spring, the daffs will be out early as well. But remember there is still time for a very cold snap. So do not prune till about the middle of March. With spring on its way I always hark back to Alan Seagers poem 'Rendezvous'. Searger was a US WW1 poet. 'when spring comes back with rustling shade And apple blossoms fill the air I have a rendezvous with life When spring brings back blue days and fair' Just a short extract. The irony is Seager did have a rendezvous in the spring, but it ...(Answered by Digger Smith)
