This medicinal plant is certainly one of the most cultivated in our homes. It is easy and very useful to help treat burns, cuts, stings, with its healing gel. In addition, it acts as an air purifier according to NASA. Aloe is not a demanding plant. She likes to be forgotten, so you can let the soil dry out completely before watering it, and may be directly in the sun, or not. It can tolerate lower lighting, but will then tend to wither and weaken. As it matures, it will grow considerably, and it may sag, this is normal, its leaves are heavy and large. It may therefore need a tutor, or to be placed in a higher planter so that it can lean on it.
