Product Overview
Kalanchoe, also known as Flaming Katy, is a great choice for anybody who tends to forget to water their plants. As a native to tropical Madagascar it does best in a bright, warm environment. Comes in many shades of vibrant colours and with little care will flower for very long periods.
One of the easiest plants to care for. As a flowering succulent Kalanchoe requires little water, as it stores moisture in its fleshy leaves. A small amount weekly during Spring and Summer, and just a splash once every 14 days in Winter.
Flaming Katy prefers a bright, warm position, and will tolerate some direct sun, just check on the water situation if very hot, they may require a little more than usual.
Tolerant of a wide temperature range, room temperature is ideal, but will do fine between 10-25c.
Minimum Temp: 10c
For the best blooms we recommend that you do not remove faded flowers, therefore avoiding damage to emerging new buds. Your Kalanchoe will just keep flowering. Kalanchoe enjoy a small amount of diluted plant feed added to the water every 2 to 3 weeks. As an added bonus Kalanchoe are widely used as an outdoor plant once the night-time temperatures are above 10c, usually towards the middle of May. Great in mixed pots and containers or in the garden. Will thrive in full sun, but remember it doesn`t need a great deal of water. Just make sure to bring them indoors again once temperatures begin to drop so you can continue to enjoy them.
