1 x Aloe Vera | 25-35cm Potted | Medicinal Indoor Plant Gift for Sale

Packing good, & plant very healthy with 4-5 tall plump leaves.Great. Stops itching insect bites,& minor burns from becoming worse. I often catch my hand on the oven door or shelf,& this sap stops it from blistering,& itching while it heals. Those don’t need covering just reapply sap if it’s red & itches. Gnats/mozzies seem to leave easily enflamed bites. I only cut off enough AV to use, depending on burn size. If a larger area ,I slice the narrow prickly strip off ,like runner bean string down one side of leaf I cut off & slice across into the fat side of the leaf but not cut through it. It opens like a book to cover the burn. Then strap sappy side on the burn with pre-cut strips of plaster tape/ transpore/micropore, to keep lint on top of the opened up AV leaf in place. Have all dressing parts & sharp scissors handy on a sterilised surface/ plate/or tray , before applying the leaf sap side down & lint on the burn. If a small area , cut approx 4cm leaf & squeeze sap onto burn. Leave open to dry ,then cover with lint & tape. Re-apply ever time if it burns or becomes dirty.Keep the burn DRY. If/when it burn again, just squeeze the dressing leaf to release more sap.Soon the sap dries up. Repeat the process cutting leaf to cover the burnt area,or wrap it around a finger etc A.Vera leaf cut to fit the burn, opened out as before or squeeze leaf like toothpaste.Leave to open area or dress as before & protect with lint & tape you pre-cut. Put remainder of the sappy leaf if squeezing, into a clear freezer bag & close bag.keep handy or pop it in the fridge. Dispose of the leaf if turns brown. If damaged skin constantly burns & a larger area,I phone my local pharmacist, or go to A& E sooner the better to avoid scarring. Steam burns & scalding water burns are the worst. If pain eases off after applying AV keep area clean & dry. Replace with a new dressing with Aloe Vera, same as before.If it moves or dries out.Repeat if still burns or it stay sore. The sap stains canary yellow until it’s air dried. It’s fine once dry so avoid all surfaces,cloth,clothing, takes a couple of minutes.I place a saucer,cup under the open dripping cut top of the leaf to drip on. It soon seals itself. To wash up/bathe/shower/ prep food etc just cover burn dressing with a cut finger or thumb from a NEW barrier glove & seal with plaster or other tape to keep dressing completely dry. Remove this outer protection (freezer bag etc. ) afterwards. Keep the finger to go over the dressing for more ‘wet’ use in a clean freezer bag not a wet one. The dressing needs replacing after 36-48hrs of if it gets wet or sap used up. Burns very easily become infected. Keep covered til completely healed. I keep a roll of (boxed) lint in a larger freezer bag with small steam cleaned scissors, tape & keep it dust free, sealed. Difficult but not impossible to achieve if on your own.

Arrived quickly! A lovely healthy and attractive plant! Very happy with my purchase.

Great plant and was bigger then expected on arrival. Would highly recommend reading the instructions upon opening the box on how to care for the plant.

Healthy plant and useful pot. Prompt service. Would buy from this business again

I always wait a while before writing a review as so many things die / break after a short time. However, these plants have passed with flying colours. Growing well and lovely and healthy

Large plant delivered quickly and in really good condition. Love it as it’s fitted in perfectly.

Love the plant, Packed very well. Not damaged at all.

Although it stated on delivery box, keep plant away from strong heat and frost, I feel a card ought to have been inserted with further plant care instructions ie ; how much to water, how often ect...
