The Complete Plant Care Guide

Aloe Vera

Care

They like bright indirect sun but can possibly handle direct if it is not for long. (Personal experience!)

It is a succulent so likes to dry out between waterings.

Leaves can be used to treat sunburns, (do not consume!)

Likes well draining soil which is often achieved by using perlite or pumous in a 6-4 ratio with the 4 being perlite or pumous.

Water when the top two inches of the soil is dry.

Propogation

Shoots will be sent up by the mother plant which when an average of 5 inches you can break off. However be careful not to damage the root system.

These are called pups and you replant them in equally draining soil.
