Dear proud garden friends, I recently was given a house plant but I don't know the name. It is a lovely plant so I wonder any of you can tell me its name please. Then I will be able to search for its likes and dislikes. Thanks!!
Morning Ladybird! Thanks! Follow your hint, I also found a pic which looks almost the same as my plant. It is a zebra aloe (Aloe saponaria). It is also called soap aloe. I assume ppl use it to make soaps? I can give it a try haha.

Looks like Aloe vera
MrM, Thank you! I googled Aloe vera and it definitely looks like one of them.
Hi PageZ. It is one of the Aloe family but it is not Aloe vera. I think it is the Zebra aloe

Thanks Hortico.
Zebra aloe maybe is a closer bet.
Aloe aloe!
Be careful of the prickles PageZ - don't try rubbing it on your skin
