Having a plant like this in your room can be not only an aesthetic choice but also a good idea for your health as the juice from their leaves can be used to relieve pain from scrapes and burns and when applied topically and as a natural ingredient for your homemade cosmetics. Aloe is very easy to take care of as well… before you buy an aloe, note that you’ll need a location that offers bright, indirect sunlight. In fact, the plant doesn’t appreciate sustained direct sunlight, as this tends to dry out the plant too much and turn its leaves yellow. So we recommend to water aloe vera plants deeply, but infrequently. Don’t let your plant sit in water! Water it about every 3 weeks and even more sparingly during the winter. Use your finger to test dryness before watering. If the potting mix stays wet, the plants’ roots can begin to rot. And if you want to make use of the aloe vera plant’s soothing properties, remove a mature leaf from the plant and cut it lengthwise. Squeeze the gel out of the leaf and apply it to your burn, or simply lay the opened leaf gel-side down on top of the affected area. Did it work!?
The best care you can give your peace lily is to water it attentively. When (and only when) the potting soil is dry, add enough water to make it damp, but not so much as to create standing water. Too little water will cause the plant to wilt and die – in fact, if you neglect to water your plant, you should be able to see it visibly droop. However, too much water can cause a condition called root rot which can be fatal to the plant. Aim to water about once per week, when the soil is dry. It is sometimes recommended to even wait until the plant has begun to wilt ever-so-slightly before each watering. The peace lily should be close to, but not directly under a window in a warm room in your house where it will benefit from indirect sunlight. North or West facing windows are best as these do not allow direct sunlight all day. Try to avoid exposing your plant to cold air or too much sun, as these can cause the plant to become unhealthy and develop brown, shriveled leaves. Take care of this beauty because she can give you amazing flowers and big satisfaction!
