Aloe Vera Research at Kew Gardens

There has been a series of BBC TV programmes shown last year, 'A Year At Kew', in which the programme follows the work carried out at Kew Gardens, London throughout a full season.
In one of the episodes, there was a feature regarding the growing and research being conducted at Kew on Aloe Vera plants.
There is a special hot house at Kew dedicated to the growing of all sorts of varieties of Aloe Vera.
The research team is looking into the known efficacious properties that some of this species of this miracle plant has.
A researcher within the team was investigating the varieties to try to discover if there is another species, other than the Aloe Vera Barbadensis that has equal or even greater efficacious properties that can be grown in different climates around the world, thus increasing the cultivation of the plants and its naturally known benefits.
I will be waiting and watching for the outcome of this research and hope to take a trip to Kew this year to see what is going on there for myself.
Watch this space for up-dated reports! Question posed by garden expert Alan Titchmarsh at TV's 'A year at Kew' Christmas Quiz In the same 'series as a 'Year at Kew', the 'Christmas at Kew' programme held the Kew Christmas quiz, hosted by the famous Alan Titchmarsh TV garden expert.
Alan, who was trained at Kew, so appropriate for him to host the seasonal quiz in which Kew students challenge the Kew experienced tutors and gardeners.
One of the questions posed by Alan was: 'Which member of the Lily family produces a gel that has anti-inflammatory properties?' Sadly to say, the students got the answer wrong.
The correct answer of course being 'Aloe Vera'
