How to Care for the Plant
Water
When growing Kalanchoes as with most succulents, you should allow the soil surface and potting soil mix to almost completely dry between waterings and then water deeply.Water more during the warm spring and summer months, and reduce watering during the autumn and winter.
Pruning
If you’ve received a Kalanchoe with flowers as a gift, after flowering has finished, deadhead and cut back the plant, reduce water and give it a rest for the rest of the winter.
Fertilizer
During the growing season, feed Kalanchoe once a month using a liquid fertilizer, or apply slow-release fertilizer pellets early in the springtime.
Sunlight
In general, when you care for Kalanchoe as a houseplant without emphasis on producing flowers, they prefer a sunny, bright light setting in the summertime.In the winter, a south facing window is a good home, but take care that the sun is not so bright as to burn the leaves.
Soil
Plant Kalanchoe in a light, airy, good quality, potting mix. The main requirement is that the soil mixture is light and well-draining.If planting outdoors, be sure to work plenty of organic matter into the soil to improve drainage. Give them plenty of space to allow for good air circulation and comfortable growth when planting in a garden bed.
Temperature
Kalanchoes are happiest in warmer environments. If you are happy with keeping your Kalanchoe mostly for foliage, they will be happier if you don’t allow the temperatures to drop below 55° degrees Fahrenheit.
