Hi Ivy~ ALOES LIKE TO BE DRY, DRY , DRY!! THEY DON'T NEED ALOT OF WATER! THEY ARE A CACTIE TYPE PLANT, THEY LIKE TO BE CROWDED ALSO IF YOU HAVE TWO OR THRE IN A POT THEY SEEM TO DO WELL ALSO!I WATER MINE ABOUT MAYBE ONCE EVERY FOUR TO FIVE WEEKS! AND THEY LIKE THE HEAT! I HAVE MINE IN A SOUTH WINDOW~ AND THEY ARE LOVELY, WHERE I LIVE I CAN'T REALLY PUT THEM OUTSIDE IN NOVA SCOTIA! TOO RAINY AND CHILLY HERE LATELY! GOOD LUCK TO YOU ON THIS ADVISE I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR HOW YOU MAKE OUT WITH THEM?! HOPE THIS WILL BE OF SOME HELP TO YOU! JO~~

JO,

I have a co-worker who has several beautiful aloe vera plants and she I can have a cutting from them, but neither of us know how to take a cutting without killing her plants. Is it like other plants were I can cut it at a joint and replant in soil?

Thanx~ Rhonda

hi rhonda i e mailed u this a.m. not sure if u'd get it though, with aloe's if u have little offsets what look like little babies u carefully spoon them out and replant them if u have two or three little ones,take them out and plant them together in one pot, they should do good, as they like to be crowded! let me know if u got my other e mail?? not too sure sometimes if they get through or not thanks! and good luck! oh and put a wee bit of water in the new babies just to get them of to a start and treat them like your other plants they should do really well k? jo~
