One of my favourites is Aloe Vera. Looks nice, very low maintenance and the gel that you can extract from the leaves has medicinal properties.

Quite how the Aloe Vera actually produces the liquid gel given virtually no water is an absolute miracle. A Desert Rose also defies the odds. Keep planting and caring. Without plants the human race would be extinct. They will be in a clear vase with clear pebbles et rocks. Is it ok to use seashells? Not sure if I remember correctly that it is a no-no.

Hi Penny — Algae forms in sunlight so keep your vase or container out of the sun. Rinse the roots off thoroughly. Just be sure to rinse the vase out well so there are no traces of H2O2.

It is in a pot which is 2 inches dia. It has 2 stalks with 2 stems of foliage on one and 1 on the other. The foliage stems are now twice the height that it was. It sits in a bowl with plenty of room around in my bath it but I only water it about every 5 days and it seems to be doing ok except for the brown tips and your advice to others has helped me out here. Should I transplant it and how do I get it out of this container without damaging it as it seems to be sealed in 2. Are the foliage stems very thin because of crowding in pot Thanking you Carol.

I bought a small 3 inch bamboo in a decorative desk vase and my plant was getting way too big, so I put in a large glass vase with rocks, as it grew more the roots broke through the vase, what a mess, it ruined an electrical box due to being on a counter above it. Should I cut the roots back often and if so around how much?

Few days ago I noticed the stem of one of the stalk turning yellow right at the top, and the yellowing is slowly spreading downwards and also into the leaves. Thank you so much for the post Nell! I tried them just in water with the glass beads a couple of times but they never did well. This one seems to being doing much better. I searched several sights for information about how to grow them and yours by far is the best. I was given one and it has a lot of tall leave on it, taller than the plant itself.

Should I be cutting them back? Hi Jean — It could be water quality, over watering or too much light. It may have stared before you even bought it. The roots are so intertwined, I feel that breaking the vase is the only way. I have a LB that came potted in dirt with pebbles on top. Is it possible to remove it from the soil and clean the roots so I can grow it it water?
