Aloe is tenacious; it will keep growing and growing. If you cut the sprouts, you can plant them and they will grow. I started with a tiny plant and now have four planters, not counting ones I have given away.

Say...you go on vacation to the beach and fall asleep to the soothing sounds of waves. You get sun burned. Then what.

Go to a beach vacation to a place where aloe plants grow all over the place; pick some tentacles and keep in your hotel room fridge.
