gasrocks said:I get visitors who do not know a lot about succulents. They point to a plant and ask what's that. An Aloe I reply. Oh, I have to get one of those, I have lots of skin problems. My first question: I have been told that only Aloe Vera ( I do not have one) has medicinal properties and not all Aloes. True? 2nd question: Given the poor conditions that they would probably give their Aloe, I would assume that production on a regular basis is not possible. True? 3rd question: Wiki says there is no proof that Aloe Vera does any good, makes a difference. Thoughts on that? Gene

Medicinal Aloes
The most common, and most potent, medicinal aloe is Aloe vera. Aloe perryi and Aloe ferox have medicinal properties, but are not as strong and effective as the Aloe vera. This type of aloe is also known as Cape aloe, Barbados aloe. and Curacao aloe.I will be adding this information to my website.https://kmd508.wixsite.com/aloeveracare
