𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 - Aloe ‘Pink Blush’

We’ve all seen handsome Aloe plants and marveled at their ability to grow with care bordering on neglect. Aloe ‘Pink Blush’ is a very drought-tolerant clumping succulent that stays small—yours will grow to just about one foot tall and wide with very little intervention.

Pink Blush has distinctive textured leaves, variegated with a pattern of light and dark green pigments and lined with a fresh pink, toothy border. This will be the plant people ask about!

Place yours in a bright room that is full of sun or in a south-facing window. Let yours dry out completely before watering, then water well.

𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲 $𝟮 on each plant with your mobile app at checkout.

I am the fallen soldier, sailor, airman, and Marin

I am the fallen soldier, sailor, airman, and Marine.

Remember me.

I am the one that held the line. Sometimes I volunteered. Sometimes I went because I was told to go.

But when the nation called—I answered.

In order to serve, I left behind the family, friends, and freedom that so many take for granted.

This Memorial Day, remember me—the fallen warrior. And remember me not for my sake, but for yours. Remember what I sacrificed so you can truly appreciate the incredible treasures you have: Life. Liberty. The pursuit of happiness.

- excerpt from “The Fallen Soldier” by former Navy SEAL and author Jocko Willink.
