    Hi, I've got a few going spare - they keep producing babies!!
    I'm in Essex - you could have tone or two if you can collect (free of course - mse!!)
    pm me if interested.

    We have a big one that keeps producing little babied which we potted on and we now have them everywhere.

    If anyone wants one then let me know and I can post some little off shoots and I would think they would survive in the post... we never look after ours and its still going strong.

    PM me if anyone wants one.

    I asked on freecycle for one and got about 20 offers, in the end the baby I picked up had had a baby of it's own! Worth a try.
  • I've got two I've grown from seed! They've not had babies yet though.

    I live in Walsall, and would be happy for someone to take both of mine away. I hate the damned things - don't know why I ever got one in the first place. :p

    They could both be split into about 20.
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.
  • Anyone aound London has any babies to spare?
    I have just moved here and am trying to set up a mini windowsill garden.
    Thanks!

    what is this used for?my nan has one and rubs the juice in her hands as a skin moisturiser,but any other uses?:)
  • It's good for minor burns and grazes.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    My better half and I been searching for some nice Aloe Vera plants for months and then one day we found some organic baby aloe vera plants on Ebay and went ahead with buying them.
    The plants were the best Aloe Vera plants we have ever bought. They were organic and medicinal which makes them suitable for human use.
    We loved the plants as well as the service. We ordered four of the baby organic aloe vera plants and they all arrived 1st class. What more, they were bare roots so we planted them and since they have grown we are ever so happy with them. My bf even use the leaves in salad and the get in what not!!!
    We would also advise you to buy an organic aloe vera only, specially if you are going to use it on your skin. We bought them from Ebay. From a couple called jim & sue. We think they were priced £3.99 each and we feel that every penny is well spent. We would recommend just search for organic aloe vera plant and hopefully you will see the right ones! Alternatively, you can try searching for organic baby aloe vera plant. Good Luck!!! Miss Weaver x
