Aloe

My parents have an aloe plant (pictured left - apparently my parents use a plastic spoon as a mini shovel?), and after a weekend in the sunshine, I am thinking it may be a good idea to raise one of these fellas. Nothing better than some fresh aloe on the skin! It's also great to drink....yes, I said drink (but don't go sucking down your aloe plant, because only a certain variety plant is drinkable).
