Aloe is a popular indoor plant that fits well into any apartment design.
At the same time, the flower is quite unpretentious and requires only minimal care.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", an agronomist and landscape designer, told what needs to be done so that the plant will delight you with its appearance for a long time.
Where to put a flowerpot
It is better to give preference to a place where the plant will receive enough light. This can be a window sill on the southern, western or eastern side. There will be too little light on the northern side.
What temperature is suitable
From spring to autumn, aloe feels fine at normal room temperature, but in warm months you can put the pot on the balcony. In this case, you should choose a place that is protected from drafts and precipitation.
How to water aloe
The water should be filtered or settled. Do not use too cold or too hot liquid. The best option is water at room temperature.
The plant should be watered moderately. From spring to autumn, the soil in the pot should be allowed to dry out before the next watering by about a third.
In the cold season, it should be taken into account that the soil must dry out completely before watering.
This indoor plant does not require additional spraying.
Periodically, dust should be removed from the leaves. Sometimes it is acceptable to give the plant a shower.
