aloe---resurrected!



Today I repotted a few plants. One was an aloe that has sat bare root and neglected in a bucket in the green house corner for a few years now. When I last repotted the big aloe these were the broken and trimmed pieces that fell off. Since I couldn't make myself throw them away they sat in a bucket without water or soil in extreme temperatures for several years.
Glancing down and seeing that they were still struggling to survive and figuring that I could use another medicinal aloe --I quickly potted them and gave them a shot of water--they perked up almost immmediately!
No wonder it has the reputation for being a healing plant!
