Description

Aloe vera grows wild in tropical climates around the world and is cultivated for agricultural and medicinal uses. Aloe is also used for decorative purposes and grows successfully indoors as a potted plant.

  • Aloe barbadensis vera - Succulent Plant- 1
  • 3 inch (8 cm) Grower Round Plastic Pot (Black)- 1
  • 3.3 inch (8 cm) Square Plastic Planter with Rounded Edges (Blue)- 1

The species is frequently cited as being used in herbal medicine since the beginning of the first century AD. Extracts from Aloe vera are widely used in the cosmetics and alternative medicine industries, being marketed as variously having rejuvenating, healing, or soothing properties.

Planting and care

  • The most common reason an aloe plant dies is that the owners water too often or do not allow the water to drain.
  • Do not make this mistake when taking care of aloe houseplants..
  • Aloe barbadensis vera care

    The first step in aloe vera plant care is to realize that this plant is a succulent. Like cacti, succulents do best in dry conditions.

    Also, make sure that the pot has plenty of drainage holes. Aloe vera plants cannot tolerate standing water.

    Sunlight Aloe vera plants need bright light, so they do best in south- or west-facing windows.
    Watering Water the plant properly. The soil of the aloe vera plant should be allowed to go completely dry before being watered. When the aloe plant is watered, the soil should be thoroughly drenched, but the water should be allowed to drain freely from the soil.
    Soil When growing aloe vera plants, plant them in a cactus potting soil mix or a regular potting soil that has been amended with additional perlite or building sand.
    Temperature Warm weather
    Fertilizer You can fertilize your aloe vera plant, but aloes do not need to be fertilized. If you decide to add fertilizing to part of your aloe vera plant care routine, aloe vera plants should be fertilized once a year in the spring. You can use a phosphorus-heavy water-based fertilizer at half strength.

    Nice Cute & Perfect

    Plants were delivered in excellent condition.
    Only hiccup was the edges of snake plant leaves were broken a bit. Other than that the ceramic pots and plants seemed to be perfect. Will water and take care of the plants as per the care guide provided with each.
    In case of any issues in the next few months will re-review.
