ALOE VERA Medicinal Plant - LARGE - Barbadensis Miller

I was so excited to receive our Aloe Vera plant and I am impressed at how healthy, abundant and large the plant is. It looks very much like the photo.I am now looking for a nice planter to compliment it!Many thanks Divine Cactus

good plant to have indoors, low maintanence...

I had to send this back as the leaves were stale looking with white coating on it, did not fit the description. I was also not refunded for return postage as described even though the price for the item was refunded.

When it arrived, the box was so small I couldn't believe it was the plant! Most of the longer leaves had been bent to fit in the box, which meant they turned brown and floppy and were dead after a few days - so I had to trim them off. This hasn't affected the life of the plant, but it doesn't look as appealing as it would have with the tips!Other than that, the plant is just as big as stated, and has since developed two smaller pups which I look forward to reporting once they get a bit bigger.When the plant is big enough I intend to harvest the leaves to ingest the gel, so I'm pleased to have found one of the barbadensis Miller variety.

There are similar plants available for under £10 on amazon. I feel ripped off having paid £20. The plant is not that great either. Only a few leaves and half of them are damaged. Not like the photo shown in the advert at all.

This was brilliant. It came with a surprise of 6 or 7 cactai pups, which I separated at the roots and still have growing half a year later in separate pots. I do try tasting the cactus occasionally but it is quite bitter. I normally just use the aloe vera on the main one for skin care and sun protection. Low maintenance plants. I water roughly once a week but I have left them for almost a month sometimes and they have still recovered well. Still going strong. The pot it comes in is good but compact. Moved the main one to a bigger pot, and one of the growing pups into the original pot.

Having used this plant for medicinal purposes in Barbados, I was thrilled to discover that it was available to buy in the UK. The plant is beautiful and healthy and came well packaged, with prompt delivery. I recommend it for medicinal purposes, with the bonus of it being an elegant looking plant. I am waiting for the seller to have more in stock as I intend to purchase another one :)

good big plant healthy, but waited a long time for it to come.
