Our Feedback
Following an attack of cellulitis around my ankle, I developed a painful leg ulcer that was slow to respond to conventional treatment. Then I read the article on your site about Aloe Vera, and promptly ordered a large plant, which arrived quickly in excellent condition. No, it was not an overnight cure, but perseverance over a number of weeks resulted in a completely healed ulcer, just as promised. To guard against reinfection, I rub a little juice on the vulnerable area each night. Also, I suffer from contact dermatitis, and find the juice is excellent for taking the itch out of a rash, and promoting healing. My heartfelt thanks for the information, and for the super plant which, potted on into a large container and standing by my kitchen patio door, grows bigger every day. I will be recommending Aloe Vera to all my family and friends - definitely a 'must have' plant.

Supplied as a packet of 10 seeds.
This Product is Available Now.A real novelty both in shape and colour. Just like 'Eight Ball', this produces round fruits that are best eaten when they reach cricket ball proportions - only these are a gorgeous golden yellow in colour. The skin of this variety is very thin, the flesh extremely dense and meaty.
Eat these when around the size of a cricket ball or smaller for a lovely fresh flavour.
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.
