Secondly, you need to start after a dry and cold period.

This is exactly the time that precedes the beginning of aloe flowering in natural conditions.

Thirdly, in order for aloe to bloom, you need to create a special climate for the plant right on the windowsill.

To do this, florists need to equip a reservoir on the windowsill, into which warm air will not penetrate.

The flower must be kept at 5-7 degrees Celsius, but not frozen.

As the weather warms, the flower will form buds and bloom.
