Know before you buy
Shipping bare root means the plant is removed from its pot and soil before transit to ensure it arrives safely and without excess weight. Upon arrival, you will need to pot the plant in a well-draining succulent soil mix.
The Pink Butterflies Kalanchoe naturally drops tiny plantlets from its leaf margins. You can simply collect these babies and place them on top of moist, well-draining soil, where they will eventually root and grow into new plants.
This Kalanchoe thrives in hardiness zones 9, 10, and 11. If you live in a colder climate, you should keep it as a houseplant or move it indoors during the winter months to protect it from frost.
Yes, this succulent prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant colors. If the plant does not receive enough light, it may lose its unique pink and purple hues and begin to stretch.
Like most succulents, this plant prefers the 'soak and dry' method. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot, and be sure to use a pot with drainage holes.
