2" Aloe Vera

Aloe vera plants are easy to care for and have many benefits. Here's a simple guide to caring for them:

1. Light: Aloe vera prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct sunlight, especially in the morning or late afternoon, but avoid intense midday sun.

2. Watering: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water thoroughly, then let the excess water drain away. Aloe vera is drought tolerant and prefers slightly dry conditions over being too wet.

3. Soil: Plant aloe vera in well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix. You can also add perlite or sand to improve drainage.

4. Temperature: Aloe vera prefers temperatures between 60-80°F (15-27°C). It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures in winter but should be protected from frost.

5. Fertilizing: Aloe vera does not require frequent fertilizing. You can feed it lightly with a diluted, balanced fertilizer once a month during the spring and summer growing season.

6. Potting: Use a shallow and wide pot with drainage holes to allow excess water to escape. Aloe vera has shallow roots and doesn't need a deep pot.

By following these simple care guidelines, your aloe vera plant should thrive and provide you with its medicinal gel and attractive appearance.
