Caring for your Aloe
 
Pot: The smaller Aloe species and varieties are well suited to containers or container gardening, they can also be planted in sheltered positions in the rockery. Larger Aloe species are best suited to the open-ground in the garden
 
Soil: The plants prefer a well drained soil, a mixture of sandy soil with some organic matter
 
Light: The brighter the light the more colourful your plant. Aloes prefer brighter conditions, they are more compact and colourful when bright light is given.
 
Water: Your plant should dry out for a few days between watering. Over-watering can cause the leaves to burst and crack along the length. Avoid watering the coldest months of the year.
