Calandiva Kalanchoe are double-flowering varieties with a good branching habit and heads of uniform rose-like flowers which can last up to six weeks. Ideal in containers, baskets, along borders and edges and will brighten up any table. Also ideal in sunny hot-spots in the garden. Shelter from frost. Kalanchoes are fairly low-maintenance plants which need plenty of bright light to avoid the plant becoming leggy; windowsills can be ideal. They also prefer well draining soils and potting mixes. Be careful not to over-water and allow the plant to dry out between waterings to avoid rot. Be sure not to leave them sitting in water. Removing spent flowers will keep your Kalanchoe looking neat.
