A friend bought this for me to have aloe vera available to put on sunburned skin during summer since both my daughter and I have very fair skin. So far it’s stood up to my abuse quite decent and seems to be increasing in size. I actually need to repot it to a larger planter so it continues having room to grow. I recommend an aloe plant as it is a natural, healthy remedy for skin irritation.

Relatively easy, but be careful of root rot. They do not need that much water. Whatever you think they need I PROMISE it’s less!

Aloe IMO is the BEST plant for “beginner” plant parents. I swear to you that these plants are almost IMPOSSIBLE to kill. To elaborate, I once had a fairly large aloe plant that lived with me in my basement apartment bedroom. One summer I had to leave my apartment behind for about 6 month. Unfortunately, the aloe plant in question was left behind, in a dark room without water for 6 months. When I came home, it was FINE. A little dry, and a little wonky from growing towards the smidge of light that squeaked through that god awful, tiny, basement window but completely alive and WELL. I don’t care how bad you think you are at taking care of plants, you can definitely take care of an aloe! Be careful though, though these babies might be great for that third degree sunburn (gingers I’m looking at you) they are very toxic to our furry friends! So keep up and away from any pets! Good luck out there folks!

When it’s a bright green, it needs to water, when it turns brown and squishy, let it dry aka no more water.

Just make sure not to water it too much! It’ll suck in all the water but you can drown them easily

Aloe veras are meant to break off so if a little piece is missing when purchasing, it won’t affect the entirety of the the plant!

their leaves fluctuate in stiffness depending on how long it’s been since they’re watered
