Care Tips:

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves.

  • Water: Water moderately; allow the soil to dry out between watering. Overwatering can cause root rot.

  • Temperature: Thrives in average household temperatures between 15-22°C. Avoid draughts and sudden temperature changes.

  • Feeding: Feed every 4-6 weeks with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser during the growing season (spring and summer).

  • Repotting: Repot annually or when the plant becomes root-bound, ideally in a well-draining succulent or cactus mix.

Kalanchoe blossfeldiana also makes a wonderful gift plant, thanks to its cheerful blooms and low maintenance needs. At Lus-taighe, pride is taken in offering home-grown Kalanchoe that brings a splash of Scottish charm to your home.
