Although there are several ways to propagate this beautiful plant, we will show you one of the easiest ways, especially if you have a healthy specimen. The only thing you need is to have at hand the necessary materials for successful cultivation.
To grow aloe vera at home, you need the offspring of the mother plant, those small plants that look like miniature versions of aloe vera, which grow around the main plant. Remove them and place them in a pot with a substrate and light water. These large plants can grow on their own; Or if possible, remove the aloe vera leaf. In this method, cut a leaf from the base of the plant, let it cure for a few days, and then place the cut portion directly into the substrate.
After planting the aloe vera, you will not have difficulty caring for it, because it is a very resistant plant that adapts to almost any environment. The only thing you should take good care of is that the substrate has good drainage, maintaining constant watering, but without waterlogging the soil. Likewise, you should place the pot containing the plant in a place that receives plenty of sunlight.
You can enrich your garden or start it in a simple way with this plant. For your garden, you can also plant chamomiles, avocado trees, lemon trees, ferns, plant cucumbers, kiwis, cherry tomatoes, Manzano chilies, Serrano peppers, peppers, onions, radishes, cilantro or spinach.
