CARE:
- Allow the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent overwatering and potential root rot. Aloes store water in their leaves, allowing them to tolerate drought periods. It should be watered thoroughly but infrequently.
- This plant does best with consistent bright, indirect sunlight. A few hours of MORNING sun is beneficial, but avoid prolonged exposure to direct afternoon sunlight during July/August, as it can burn the leaves.
- Providing the plant with consistent light helps maintain its compact form and prevents stretching.
- It prefers a dry environment, so avoid placing this plant in a humid climate with your leafier tropical varieties.
- Avoid using heavy potting soils or soils that retain too much moisture. Opt for a well-draining, gritty potting media.
