Aloe vera is a plant grown by X in a garden. It was the Cake at Stake location in "How Loe Can You Grow?", "Who Stole Donut's Diary?", and "Fashion For Your Face!". X's reason for growing them likely relates to being sent to the burn center in "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset".
Coverage[]
Ruby drove over the aloe vera garden 73 times between "Take the Tower" and "How Loe Can You Grow?" using the FreeSmart Supervan to drive in circles while singing. The plants were the main focus of the challenge, where the final 12 had to try and make them grow by improving the Sun.
X's aloe vera garden was ruined from being burned too much during the challenge in "A Taste of Space", and was temporarily replaced with Flower, who was trapped in a pot. Between BFB 20 and "Let's Raid The Warehouse", the plants returned to normal.
The aloe vera garden has a spring contraption underneath it, as shown in "Who Stole Donut's Diary?" when Four stomped on it, causing the springs to rise into the air. It can be used to access the Big Rotating Building.
In "The Hidden Contestant", Leafy teleports to the aloe vera garden, which is still suspended in the air, using Gelatin's Earth Facts book.
Trivia[]
- At the end of "How Loe Can You Grow?", the aloe vera plants are shown to be around twice as tall as Four.
- However, they return to their smaller size in "A Taste of Space".
- X apparently created the garden due to the events of "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset".
- The aloe vera plants can be used to make a cream that prevents skin dryness and, as X implies, possibly offers burn resistance.
- Bubble knew how to grow aloe vera because she regularly uses the cream made from it to keep her skin hydrated and avoid popping from dryness.
- Ironically, despite the challenge in "How Loe Can You Grow?" being to bring more direct sunlight for X’s aloe vera garden, in real life, aloe vera plants thrive in more indirect sunlit or dimly lit areas. Direct sunlight would scorch the leaves and make the aloe vera inside unusable.
