Description How to Grow More Info Delivery Reviews

Aloe vera has been widely grown as an ornamental plant and makes a great houseplant. The thick, fleshy, green to grey-green leaves enables the species to survive in areas of low natural rainfall, making it ideal for rockeries and other low water-use gardens. The species is popular with modern gardeners as a medicinal plant - it is effective in reducing inflammations and easing pain from sunburn. Like most succulents, Aloe is intolerant of heavy frost and snow and is best kept indoors or in heated glasshouses during the winter season. Height 4ft. Supplied in 10.5cm pot.

Please note: Some houseplants are toxic or harmful to pets if ingested. If you believe your pet has consumed a poisonous plant then seek veterinary attention immediately. Take a sample of the plant with you.

Ideal For conservatory

Position In sun or semi shade

Aloe enjoys a bright position with a constant temperature of 21C (70F) to 26C (80F) where it will receive plenty of indirect light, but not full sun.

Water frequently to maintain evenly moist compost. Avoid leaving Aloe in standing water as this may cause it to rot. House plants should be fed regularly between March and September when they are in active growth.
