How To Grow Aloe Vera In The UK

In the UK grow Aloe Vera as a houseplant, in a sturdy pot with cactus or succulent compost and added perlite for drainage. Position this tender perennial in a sunny spot which will not burn your aloe with direct sunlight. Never let the temperature drop below 10C and keep the roots free from standing water.
