I have a lot of Aloe plants growing in my yard.
Aloe is an attractive and interesting plant to grow and is very beneficial.
(I have used it to soothe sunburn and insect bites...but the list is long, as to it's uses.)
Aloe can be grown as a potted plant or planted in the ground. Sometimes they are hurt by the cold this far north in Florida, but they will always come back.

our aloe's flower is colored green-yellow. this one's a unique red. it's really good to have one at home for home remedies. my RT is up here.

This stuff grows wild...it can be very invasive, we had it in our back yard in Tucson and I was always having to thin it out!

Anni,
ReplyDeleteYes, it spreads a lot but I don't mind where we are, as we have a lot of area. It's planted around a tree in an 'out of the way' spot.
Don't think I have ever seen the flowers of them. I use Aloe from the plant all the time.
ReplyDeleteMy Ruby Link for you
