How to care for an Aloe Tiki Tahi
Watering Aloe Tiki Tahi
Water your Aloe Tiki Tahi moderately, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings. This succulent stores moisture in its fleshy leaves, so overwatering can quickly cause root rot. For more tips on balanced watering, read our blog on aloe vera care.
Light requirements of Aloe Tiki Tahi
Place the Aloe Tiki Tahi in a spot with plenty of indirect sunlight, such as near a bright east- or west-facing window. Too little light leads to stunted, stunted leaves, while direct midday sunlight can cause light sunburn. This plant thrives in a warm, bright room, for example, among other sun-loving varieties from our collection of sunny plants.
Frequently occurring problems
Yellow leaves
Yellow leaves on the Aloe Tiki Tahi often indicate overwatering or poor drainage. Check if the pot has sufficient drainage holes and replace the potting mix with a more airy substrate if necessary. You can find more information about root rot and the right solution in our guide on what to do about root rot in your houseplants.
Plant dripping water
A "sweating" Aloe Tiki Tahi can secrete moisture through its stomata, especially in high humidity or warmer temperatures. This is usually harmless, but it can indicate an overly humid microclimate. In winter, when heating dries out the air, you can gradually return the plant to normal humidity; read more in our blog about caring for plants in winter.
Pests
Dusty air or excessively dry weather can sometimes attract pests like spider mites and thrips. Inspect the leaves regularly and, if necessary, place sticky yellow traps, such as our fungus gnat sticky traps. A mild soap or alcohol solution can also be effective in deterring pests.
Carrots emerge from the bottom of the pot
If roots are visible protruding from the bottom, your Aloe Tiki Tahi needs more growing space. Repot the plant in a pot one size larger and use airy potting soil from our collection of houseplant pots. Ensure good drainage during repotting by placing a layer of hydroponic pebbles or pumice at the bottom of the pot.
Brown edges on the leaves
Brown leaf tips are often caused by a combination of low humidity and too much direct sunlight. Increase the humidity by placing a bowl of water nearby, for example, or using a humidifier. Also read our 5 tips for increasing humidity in your home for more ideas.

Aloe Tiki Tahi belongs to the Aloe family and is generally mildly toxic to pets if ingested. Keep cats and dogs away from it to prevent stomach upset. For safe, worry-free options, browse our collection of non-toxic houseplants, perfect for families with young children and pets.
