Aloe Vera is the classic windowsill succulent — thick, fleshy leaves fan out in a sculptural rosette, each one holding the clear gel that has made aloe a familiar name on cosmetics shelves. This large specimen (Ø19cm pot, 70cm tall) provides immediate impact as a floor or shelf plant. Sun loving, drought tolerant, and very low maintenance.

Care Guide
