Garden NOTES
ALOE there
Aloes add colour to the winter garden, plus they’re hardy, water wise and have a long flowering season. Aloe hybrids are suitable for containers, thrive in sandy soil mixed with good quality compost, and need at least four hours of full sun every day.
(pictured above) is small and bushy with lovely, pale yellow flowers that can open as early as February and, depending on the size of the bush, still appear until the end of July. It does equally well in a pot up to 45cm in diameter.
