Kalanchoe Perfecta Mix 10.5cm

Description

Kalanchoe Perfecta Mix 10.5cm from Javado

Like other succulents, Calandiva needs well-draining soil with a slightly acidic or neutral pH.
Add sand or perlite to your potting soil, or buy a blend made for succulents and cacti.

Plant Calandiva outdoors, about 8 to 12 inches (20 to 30 cm) apart.
Give the plant full sun outdoors and as much sunlight as possible indoors, either with direct or bright, indirect sunlight.
A spindly-looking plant may result from too little light.Because Calandiva is a drought-tolerant plant, it is best to err on the side of too little water rather than too much.

Water the plant thoroughly every week or less, but wait until the soil is dry before rewatering.
Apply a balanced fertilizer once a month during the growing season to encourage flowering, using a liquid fertilizer for an indoor plant and either a liquid or granular type for outdoor plants.

Minor pruning and pinching are all Calandiva needs to encourage flowering and create a more bushy full shape.
Cut back the tallish stems that rise above the leaves after the flowers finish blooming.
Calandiva needs long nights, from 14 to 16 hours of darkness, and short days to develop flower buds, which form during the late fall and winter months.
