: Is the Aloe Vera plant a plant that can be kept in a bathroom in front of a window? My concern is the daily moisture.
: I previously had a jade in the spot and the leaves began falling. Any ideas?

Hi Gavin,

I would think that if the bathroom is too humid for the jade, the aloe would suffer the same fate. They prefer low humidity and are often found in desert climates. See this site.
