It is important to choose a well-lit place for aloe - a western, eastern or southern window sill will do.

In a place where there is little light, the flower stretches out, becomes smaller and loses its attractive appearance.

Note that if the plant has been in the shade for a long time, it should not be moved immediately under the scorching sun.

Let's see what other rules should be followed when caring for aloe.

Rules for watering and caring for a flower

For watering, it is better to use filtered, boiled and settled water at room temperature.

In winter, the soil should dry out completely before the next watering. In summer, you need to develop a watering schedule and stick to it.

As for fertilizers, regular fertilizer for succulents, which is added to moist soil, will do.

In summer, it wouldn’t hurt to take the aloe out onto the balcony, and in winter, it’s worth providing it with a relatively cool wintering spot.
