Trendy succulents seem to grab the spotlight, but why not grow a succulent that’s beautiful AND beneficial? Aloe needs little help to thrive—it’s a tough plant that offers big rewards, both to your skin and to your garden, indoor or out! Plant aloe in a container inside in bright, direct sunlight, or if your climate is warm year-round, you can add it to the garden. (When temperatures cool to below 50 degrees, bring aloe inside.) Make sure the soil drains well. The clear gel inside an aloe leaf is known for its soothing, wound-healing properties. Keep an aloe plant in the kitchen to cool burns. It’s also an ingredient in many sunburn remedies, so consider adding it to your garden if you’re a sun worshipper.
