Silver SpoonKalanchoe hildebrandtii

Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is a common cause of root rot. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry, ensuring excess water drains away.

Reduce watering significantly during winter dormancy.

Prune to maintain shape or control size. Remove dead or leggy stems to encourage bushier growth. Pruning can be done at any time, but it's best to do it in spring before active growth begins to allow cuts to heal.

Easily propagated from stem cuttings. Allow cuttings to callus over for a few days before planting in well-draining soil. Roots typically form within a few weeks, especially in warm conditions.

Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its container. Use a well-draining potting mix specifically for succulents or cacti. Repot in spring before the active growing season begins.
