Aloe Vera

Botanical Name: Aloe vera

Common Name(s): Aloe Vera, Medicinal Aloe, Barbadenensis

The Aloe Vera is a succulent plant renowned for its medicinal properties and striking appearance. Native to North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, this hardy plant is characterized by its fleshy, spiky leaves that are filled with a gel-like substance, commonly used in skin-care and health products. The thick, green leaves are often lined with small white teeth along the edges, and the plant produces a yellow tubular flower spike when in bloom, though it is more commonly cultivated for its leaves.

This low-maintenance plant thrives in warm, dry environments and is perfect for both beginner and experienced plant enthusiasts. Aloe Vera requires plenty of bright, indirect sunlight but can tolerate some direct sun, especially in the cooler months. It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered sparingly. Like many succulents, it is prone to root rot if overwatered, so the soil should be allowed to dry out completely between waterings. A pot with good drainage is essential to avoid stagnant water. 

Aside from its beauty, this plant is best known for its soothing gel, which has been used for centuries to treat burns, cuts, and skin irritations. The gel inside the leaves has natural antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and cooling properties, making it a popular remedy for minor skin ailments. However, the sap of the plant, which can be found beneath the skin of the leaves, can be toxic if ingested, so caution is advised around pets and small children.

Note: While Aloe Vera is non-toxic to humans in moderation, it can cause gastrointestinal upset if consumed in large quantities, and it is toxic to pets, particularly cats and dogs, if ingested.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Don't overwater: The thick, fleshy leaves of Aloe Vera plants store water, so they may wrinkle slightly during dry conditions. If the leaves become brown or mushy, it may be a sign of overwatering or rot.
  2. Fertilize twice a year: Feed your Aloe Vera with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength once or twice a year during the growing season.
  3. Propagates easily: Aloe Vera is easy to propagate from leaf cuttings or offsets.
  4. Repot with growth: Aloe Vera does not need frequent repotting. Repot the plant every 2-3 years or when it becomes too large for its container.

FAQs

Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference. Shipping live plants back and forth can cause unnecessary stress and jeopardize the health of the plant. We encourage customers to choose carefully before placing an order. Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee. Refunds will be processed to the card or account used for your purchase and will typically be available in your bank in 3-5 business days from the date it was issued.

Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping. If weather conditions are extreme (e.g., storm or severe winter), we will inform you of an updated delivery date that we believe is more appropriate.

How can I change my order details?

To update your order details, please contact us within 24 hours of placing your order. We care about all our customers and will like to ship the correct item to the right location. We are not held responsible for orders shipped to incorrect addresses. In addition, we cannot cancel orders that has already been shipped.

If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

Items apart of the same order typically ship together. In rare circumstances, the items may ship from both our Southern California and Florida greenhouses and could arrive in separate packages at different times. For these instances, once each item is shipped, you'll receive individual tracking information for each package, so you can easily track their progress.

Where do you ship?

We currently ship to the contiguous United States which consists of the 48 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?

Unfortunately, we do not offer same-day or next-day delivery. Plants require careful preparation and packaging to ensure they arrive healthy and in optimal condition, we take the necessary time to pack them properly. This ensures that your plants are shipped safely and arrive ready to thrive.
