aloe vera plant

The aloe vera plant is an easy, attractive succulent that makes for a great indoor companion. Aloe vera plants are useful, too, as the juice from their leaves can be used to relieve pain from scrapes and burns when applied topically.
Aloes come from arid climates, and have developed thick, fleshy leaves to conserve water and became adapted to bright light and dry soil. The climates in which they grow depends on the species, but most will not grow well in cool or wet climates. Blooms typically form on tall, stalks, which are sometimes branched and range from white and yellow to orange and red. Because aloes are native to Africa and the Mediterranean region, where they are pollinated by birds, they have developed stalks for the birds to sit on while drinking nectar.
Aloes do well in low-water environments like dune scapes or rock gardens. Aloe plants work well as edgings or borders, depending on size, and can also be planted in colonies for a dramatic effect. Their sturdy appearance contrasts well with more delicate plants, and they make good additions to perennial or tropical gardens. Aloes are also frequently grown as container plants, both indoors and out.
Plant your plant. Fill the pot about a third of the way with a well-draining potting mix, then place your plant in the soil. Continue filling in soil around the plant, bearing in mind that you should leave at least ¾ of an inch of space between the top of the soil and the rim of the pot. The bottom leaves of the aloe plant should rest just above the soil, too. Do not water after planting.
Ignore your plant (temporarily). After you’ve placed your aloe in its new pot, don’t water it for at least a week. This will decrease the chance of inducing rot and give the plant time to put out new roots. Until the plant seems to be rooted and happy, keep it in a warm place that receives bright but indirect light.
Water aloe vera plants deeply, but infrequently. To discourage rot, allow the soil to dry at least 1 to 2 inches deep between waterings. Don’t let your plant sit in water.
Water about every 2~3 weeks and even more sparingly during the winter.
To make use of the aloe vera plant’s soothing properties, remove a mature leaf from the plant and cut it lengthwise. Squeeze the gel out of the leaf and apply it to your burn,
Do not ingest the gel, as it can cause nausea and other unpleasant symptoms.
