Aloe Vera plants require very little water, especially throughout the winter months.

Use our Horty Girl Smart Stick method to manage your watering routine and your plants will last for years in the container you purchased them in.

To keep your plants looking fresh and clean, remember to trim old or damaged leaves.

Interesting Fact: Aloe Vera can be used to treat mild sunburns, using the gel from inside of the plant.  Cut off a section of the plant and apply the gel found inside of the plant.

How’s your plant doing? Have you ever used your Aloe plant for sunburns? I would love to hear from you! Please leave your thoughts or questions below.

The plant that improves your air quality

The plant that improves your air quality

Peace Lily flowers will rebloom throughout the year and their lush green leaves are great for improving the air quality indoors.

These plants require plenty of water and they will let you know if they are thirsty by letting their leaves droop.   When you notice the drooping leaves, water them thoroughly and watch them perk up.  Peace Lily’s will tolerate and appreciate water soaked soil so no worries about over-watering these plants.

To keep ahead of drooping leaves, simply refer to our Horty Girl Smart Stick Method and keep the soil moist to wet at all times.
