Calandiva | Kalanchoe blossfeldiana 'Calandiva'

A spectacular variety of Kalanchoe, recognized for its double flowers that resemble mini roses! Grouped in dense, colorful bouquets—pink, red, orange, yellow, white, or peach—its flowers offer an exceptionally long bloom, lasting several months. Compact and easy to care for, it’s a perfect plant to brighten a room or give as a lasting gift. 🌺

Care:

• Light: Bright light, ideally with some direct morning sun. Good light promotes abundant and prolonged flowering.
• Watering: Let the soil dry out between waterings—it’s a succulent, so it tolerates drought better than overwatering. Water from the bottom if possible to protect the flowers.
• Humidity: Adapts very well to dry indoor air. No need for additional humidity.
• Temperature: Between 18°C and 26°C. Avoid cold drafts.
• Soil: Well-draining potting mix, ideally a cactus/succulent blend.
• Fertilization: Fertilizer for flowering plants every 2-4 weeks during blooming; reduce or stop during dormancy.
• Flowering: Remove spent flowers to prolong blooming and maintain a beautiful appearance. To rebloom after dormancy, the plant needs longer, darker nights (about 14 hours of darkness) for 4-6 weeks.
• Pruning: Pinch lightly after flowering to encourage a compact, bushy shape.
• Toxicity: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested—keep away from pets.
