A friend gave me an aloe plant.
It is the kind of gift that will last for a long time.

Me and house plants don't get along... think the plant world post offices have my picture posted as a 'Most Wanted' for being a serial killer of something...

yeah it is nice to have aloe plants around, they do come in handy. Also if you do not use them for cuts, you can always eat or drink them.

Aloe plants are a great gift--they can come in real handy if you are burned or have a cut--I gave my mom one years ago and she loves it--I hope you find great uses with yours!!

Aloe is great to have around. I use it as a post waxing treatment.

We have an aloe plant and sometimes we give pieces of it away for house warming gifts.

I used to have a bunch of them as they kept multiplying but somehow they all died off.  I'll have to get one this fall as they're good for burns.

I burned my hand with boiling water one day and my grandmother gave me an Aloe plant.  It is good for burns.  Wish I had it when I got burned.  Maybe it would not have blistered.

I love having aloe plants handy, so many uses and they are easy to break off and start new ones!

I have never had a aloe plant, but always wanted one, with all the uses, it only seems right to keep one handy, maybe I will get one soon

I have one too; it's amazing how it's still alive in my house. I kill every plant I lay hands on.  ;D

Aloe plants are great. There's a lot that can be done with them. Be sure to look after it though, you don't want it to die.  :wave:

I like to keep an aloe plant around, mostly for burns.  It really helps soothe!
