Description

Aloe Vera is a timeless favorite, known for its plump, sword-like leaves filled with healing gel. Great for burns, skin care, and minimalist decor, it’s both useful and beautiful. Bright, indirect to direct sunlight. South-facing windows are ideal. Use a well-draining succulent mix. Add sand or perlite if needed. Best in warm environments (20–32°C). Avoid cold drafts or frost. Feed lightly during spring and summer (once a month). Use a pot with drainage holes. Repot every 2–3 years.
