Aloe Vera Questions and Answers

The numbers of people with aloe vera questions and answers too, is steadily increasing. More and more people are visiting this site and asking for more specifics on aloe vera uses, and how to care for, multiply and maintain their aloe vera plants. I've decided that sharing these questions and my answers could help others to find the answers more quickly.

Another reason is that sometimes I try to answer someone's question and my email is NOT able to get through to them. It bounces back. I really DO want to answer your question; by putting it here, I'm hoping you will return and see that I have answered it after all. Even if you didn't see it in your inbox.
