You can put it on burns and cuts. You can boil it to make Aloe Vera juice and for me more importantly, because I have dreads I can put it in my hair.

Great, great, container plant! So many benefits. I use aloe for my beauty regimen. Great over all. Low maintenance. Lovely addition to your garden.

Don’t over water or water too frequently. It’s best to water when the soil starts to shrink away from the edges of the pot.

Aloe veras are beautiful and strong, and can withstand a lot. Keep it in indirect sun for a few hours a day and you see the growth!!

This plant is so easy to care for. The leaves tell you everything, if they start to get crispy, water it. If they start turning purple, move it out of the sun. It’s also super low maintenance, I water it probably once every 2-3 weeks and it blooms in the spring and the flowers are a pretty/ bright shade of pink.

Vera and I are struggling. Maybe I’m paying too much attention to her. I’m hoping she’ll start thriving soon.

Easy to grow, not pet friendly. It gave my kitten diarrhea. But it’s great to use on burns!

This guy is an offshoot from a plant I’ve had for a long time. Aloe is super easy to propagate. Chop off the pups, lots of light, limited water, succulent soil. When leaves are brown, chop them off. The rest of the plant gets healthier.

This little lady is a pup from her momma and she is doing well. Easy to propagate, not a complicated plant, easy to love and give love to.

This aloe was half dead when I started taking care of her. I was able to take the dead out and was able to save half of the plant. I use the aloe from it on my sunburns.

I love my aloe, just keep a sprinkle of cinnamon on the soil to stop fungas growing ☺️
