I'm Julie, and I live with my husband and three young daughters in New South Wales suburbia, Australia. This is the online journal I kept until recently, of how we are trying to live more simply & sustainably in suburbia.

This blog is on indefinite hiatus but please feel free to look around my archives for some inspiration in your own journey to living more lightly and sustainably.

Aloe Vera

A Photo A Day Challenge: Photo #55



A very useful addition to my garden, although terribly susceptible to rot & fungal disease in my humid summers. Awesome for scalds and burns, including sunburn (ahem).



I started this challenge on January 5 - it is my aim to harvest at least one thing from my garden every day this year - and photograph it. If I can manage to pick 360 different varieties, then so much the better! This is 55/360.


Cheers,

Oh definitely! Very very useful plant and should be ridiculously easy to grow in ONC...
