YOUR OWN ALOE VERA PLANT! Having aloe vera plants on a sunny window or in your garden (mild winter climates only) is a great way to have "Nature's First Aid Kit" handy for minor burns and sunburns, cuts and scrapes, as well as the many other reasons you want a plant in your home. Daily use of the pure, inner aloe vera gel is great for the skin, and mixed in a drink of vegetable juice or fruit juice also provides the body with essential vitamins, enzymes and minerals.
ALOE VERA PLANT CARE:
Aloe Vera plants are incredibly easy to grow and maintain. In fact, they prefer to be 'forgotten' and not fussed over. A succelent that stores a great deal of water in it's leaves, aloe vera plants have very shallow roots. As with many plants, if your aloe vera is dry 1 to 2 inches down, go ahead and water it. (But if it's dry for even a few weeks in average temperatures, it will be fine.) If the soil is still damp, leave your plant alone for a week or so. Aloe Vera plants love warmth and sunlight. If you live in an area of year-round warmth, by all means let your plant stay outside in a sunny area. (Bring it inside if you are expecting frost or a "cold snap" that would reach freezing temperatures.) If you live in a cool climate, leave your plant near a sunny window where it will get at least 6 hours of sunlight in the summer. Aloe Vera plants have few pests. The only concern you should have is overwatering!

Looks just like mine! I have really good luck with these, and they drop babies all the time, I've thought about listing some. I have to keep repotting mine, it keeps growing up out of the soil! I'm looking for some seedum, not sure what type this is called but it gets little pink flowers in the summer and the leaves are green and later get a reddish tint to some of them, really pretty. I see you've listed some seedum, so maybe you know.

i ship it in a box, wrapped in newspaper for cushion. it's in the cactus family, and does well when shipped. i have never had a return on my aloe, no matter where i shipped it.
i hope that answers your question.
thank you for your interest!

How tall is a mature plant.

They get BIG, but not sure what the "normal mature" size would be. My friend has one two feet tall, with a pot full of babies in it! She just leaves them alone and they are falling out of the pot! :) That's the biggest one I've seen personally. Google may give you a more precise answer! Thanks for asking!
