Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera 🌱
Aloe Vera is cool, stylish, and bang on trend, the perfect plant for windowsills, shelves, or anywhere that needs a touch of green. Its slow-growing, stemless form has thick, fleshy grey-green leaves edged with soft serrations, giving it a sculptural look.

Native to hot equatorial climates, Aloe vera is more than happy in a pot indoors here. Easy to care for, it’s as practical as it is pretty, famed for its air-purifying qualities and soothing gel.

Plant Care

• Light: Loves bright, indirect light and can handle some direct sun. Perfect for sunny windowsills.
• Watering: Allow soil to dry out completely before watering. Avoid waterlogging as this can cause root rot.
• Temperature: Prefers normal room temperatures (15–25°C). Protect from frost.
• Humidity: Tolerates normal household humidity — no fuss needed.
• Feed: Use a cactus/succulent fertiliser once a month in spring and summer.

Good to Know

• Toxicity: Mildly toxic if ingested, so keep away from pets and children.
• Air Purifying: Known for filtering indoor air and producing soothing gel inside its leaves.
• Origin: Native to North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.
