Emilio, I have a feeling that Cyprus is perhaps more like S. California's climate than mine. I am guessing that you don't have much in the way of freezing temperature or frost, and when you do, it is brief. Being in the eastern corner of the Mediterranean, you might be even drier during the summer months than western Turkey and the islands off Turkey. I have cruised in that area during the summer, and remember it being hot and really dry. We are hot here in Mississippi, USA, but very humid and with thunderstorms moving through, giving us pretty ample amounts of rain most of the summer months. Our average high temperature from June through September, is in the 90's but our relative humidity stays above 75%. It is like a steam bath here in Mississippi.
Perhaps, because my climate is so different, someone in S. California, perhaps away from the coast and toward the desert areas, will chime in and give you some help. All my aloe vera are potted and I water those plants at least weekly. The potting media I use is so well-draining, I probably can't over-water my plants.
Again, my aloe vera don't look a thing like the ones you show.
