Bright indirect light. The skin is sensitive to direct, intense sunlight and can easily burn.
Water
Prefers regular watering, although Aloe is drought tolerant. For best results, allow the soil to dry completely before watering. During the winter, Aloe will go dormant and will not need any water until the growing season.
Soil
Keep in well-draining soil, either a cactus potting mix or add perlite to a standard potting mix. Ensure there are drainage holes in the bottom of the pot.
Temperature and Humidity
Avoid cold temperatures. They will do well in the temperature and humidity that is comfortable for you.
