I like the kinds of plants that look like the aloe vera(I already have one) and is a desert plant. For the size, I'd like it to grow atleast over a foot tall, and not to grow out out of the roof. It will be spending it's days outdoors and nights indoors. The place where it's going to be is room tempurature around 75 degrees, well lit, and a constant chirping of budgies.
What plant should I get?

If you like Aloe vera, you'd probably like some of the many, many other aloe species and varieties. Some of them get quite large when happy, but they generally stay a reasonable size in a pot. My favorite is a hybrid call "Lizard's Tongue" with green, white, and orange-pink spots, but that one only gets about 6 inches tall. One of the best places to find something you might like is plant sales and shows of the Cactus and Succulent Society; they usually advertise at garden centers, and nurseries might also have information on them. Of course, the nurseries will also try to sell you some of their desert plants, which might be a good option, too.
