How to grow and care

The plant is incredibly easy to propagate due to the abundant amounts of tiny baby plantlets on the leaves.

Sometimes, these baby plants fall off the mother plant and take root in the soil. This means you can pick up these young, growing plants and repot them into individual pots.

Otherwise, spread out a mature leaf on a bed of moist and sandy soil. Keep these in a well-lit area and wait for the plants to take root and grow.

Once they’re big enough to handle, repot them.

If you want a fuller looking plant, choose 5 to 6 small plants to pot in a 6″ inch pot… - Learn more at  CARE, BREEDING AND TIPS OF KALANCHOE FLOWERS PLANT
