Kalanchoes are low-maintenance houseplants and are very easy to care for and make a beautiful addition to your home plant collection with their small colorful flowers and succulent-like leaves.
Lifespan: Kalanchoe plants typically live for three weeks when provided with proper care
Easy Kalanchoe Care Tips:
• Sunlight Requirements: Place your kalanchoe in a bright location with indirect sunlight, as it thrives in moderate to high light conditions.
• Well-Draining Soil: Use well-draining potting soil to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mixture of potting soil and perlite works well.
• Watering: Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings, then water thoroughly, ensuring excess water drains away. Avoid overwatering, as kalanchoes are susceptible to root rot.
• Temperature and Humidity: Keep your kalanchoe in a warm environment with temperatures between 60°F to 85°F (15°C to 29°C). They prefer moderate humidity levels.
• Fertilization: Feed your kalanchoe with a balanced fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer) every 4-6 weeks to support healthy growth and flowering.
• Pruning and Deadheading: Remove spent flowers and dead or yellowing leaves regularly to encourage continuous blooming and maintain plant health.
• Repotting: Repot your kalanchoe into a slightly larger container with fresh potting soil every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot.
• Pest and Disease Management: Keep an eye out for common pests such as aphids and mealybugs. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.
• Propagation: Kalanchoes are easily propagated from stem or leaf cuttings. Allow cuttings to callous over for a few days before planting them in well-draining soil.
• Seasonal Care: Reduce watering and fertilization during the winter months when kalanchoes typically go through a dormant period. Limit watering to prevent root rot in cooler temperatures.
