There is some argument over the correct pronunciation of the kalanchoe. Either is acceptable, though the first is preferred. Kalanchoes are succulent, and as such, can tolerate warm, dry conditions commonly found indoors during the winter. Flower colors range from red to orange to yellow.
Plants prefer a bright, sunny location.
Cool evening conditions during bloom will make flowers last longer. Plants can be placed outdoors in partial shade. Allow the soil to dry before watering. Fertilize every two to three weeks. Pinch plants to keep compact.
