Care guide for Dubai homes
How to keep Aloe Vera healthy through the Dubai year.
Light
Full sun to bright light, tolerates partial shade. Keep it out of harsh direct afternoon sun in summer.
Watering
Deep but infrequent, only once the soil has dried out completely. Water when the top 2 to 3 cm of soil feels dry, empty the saucer afterwards, and check the soil before you water: AC slows how fast the plant uses water.
Care notes
Soil: Sandy, gritty, fast-draining. Common mistake: watering on a fixed schedule instead of checking soil dryness first, which causes root rot. Where it works: rock gardens, xeriscaped beds, and sunny pots on balconies or terraces.
AC and air flow
Keep it at least 1 metre from AC vents. Cold air blowing straight onto the leaves dries the edges.
Cleaning the leaves
Dust settles quickly in Dubai homes. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks so they keep taking in light.
Feeding and repotting
Feed once a month from March to October. Repot every 2 years into a pot one size up, or book a Plant Doctor visit and we do it for you.

Aloe Vera FAQs
Can Aloe vera grow outdoors in Dubai?
Yes. It handles full sun and heat well. Potted plants on very hot balconies benefit from a little afternoon shade in July and August.
How often should I water it in summer?
Every 2–3 weeks outdoors, only when the soil is completely dry. Indoors and in winter, water even less.
Why are the leaves turning red or brown?
Reddish leaves usually mean heat or sun stress, and soft brown leaves usually mean too much water. Adjust shade or watering accordingly.
Is it toxic to pets?
Yes. The ASPCA lists Aloe vera as toxic to cats and dogs, so keep it out of reach of pets.
