The best recommendation we can give you from now on is that you try to have an aloe or, better, the three recommended in your home. If you don't have room, there will always be room for three pots. The best pot is terracotta with no less than 20 centimeters in the mouth, always well drained and with soft garden soil. Since none of the three recommended aloes are too demanding, garden soil can be mixed: half a river hangover and the other half, black soil from any garden. Although there may be a feeling against when the time comes, it must be assumed that if you consume a lot of aloe, the most likely thing is that when in a pot the plant will end up at some point.
