The coral color of this aloe deepens with age and it’s “star”shape is pleasing to look at. It’s a very easy going succulent. As with regular Aloe Vera, it is prone to overwatering and root rot. It needs a well lit area and a repot every spring in order to thrive. You’ll be stunned by this beauty.

THEE plant for beginners! This was the first plant that I have ever had and it has not died and reproduces pups so often! I can forget about it for weeks and when I think it’s in danger of dying I stress it and it comes back better than ever! If leaves get too big I can cut them and freeze them for use later! My only plant I get a ‘crop’ off of!

just know that it grows very quickly and you will need to transfer it to a larger pot after in order to allow it to grow healthier.
great for burns and your skin

Grows great indoors at South East window, still grows but not as great (got burnt) South East outdoors. Maybe it’s the Las Vegas heat.
*Really so soothing for scrapes & burns on your own skin:)

Very easy to take care of, this plant was my very first plant and even though I started to over water it at first, I was able to save it thankfully with this water tracking app.

notoriously easy to grow with minimal effort. harder to wrangle them in and slow growth so they don’t need to be repotted as often. don’t leave water on leaves as they’ll turn soggy and rot off quickly.

Such a great plant for a beginner, one of my first plants. You don’t need to water it much, every two weeks. When I first got a baby aloe I gave it too much direct sun and it turned red however it bounced back to its beautiful green color and is thriving! These plants will forgive you if you screw up from time to time. They’re also just so pretty and can be used for some medical purposes which make them more special.

A must for every kitchen! Just break the end off and apply the inner “goo” directly to those klutzy/distracted burns. Aloe gel doesn’t get any fresher than that! And the plant heals itself quickly.
I learned this from my Mom who likely learned it from hers 😎

This plant has been with me through 3 moves and has somehow survived for 3 years. Super fast grower, I’ve had to repot many times already. Also, my aloe loves light, but hates direct sunlight, so if the leaves start to appear brown or red, I would move it!
