Aloe

This type of succulent is known for its medicinal benefits in a variety of applications. Aloe vera gel is found in the composition of cosmetics, drinks and other products sold over the counter. Aloe growth is possible in warm temperatures, however, a dry location must be favored.

Aloe has a large number of leaves, but its root system is very weak, growing more in clumps. Requiring light watering, it is a plant that is very popular with beginners due to its simple maintenance and its tolerance of forgetting.
