Aloe Vera is a healing, perennial succulent native to Africa and the Middle East that stands out with its captivating, fleshy foliage that can reach 1-2 ft and its majestic flower spikes that soar to 4 ft! During summer's warm months, it blooms red and orange flowers that beckon hummingbirds and other pollinators. This fast-growing plant spreads through its base pups, making it a great medicinal ornamental and beautiful hardy ground cover.

It grows best in full sun or part shade and in loose, sandy or rocky, fast-draining soils; indoor plants are best in a cactus soil mix. Water regularly in the first growing season to establish a root system; drought tolerant once established. Aloe's succulent foliage can be harvested year-round.
