Care tips: How to keep your Desert Rose at its best

As a true desert dweller, this Kalanchoe is a survivor that loves a dry and sunny climate:

1. Light: The Kalanchoe is a sun worshiper. Place it in the brightest spot you have; even direct sunlight is no problem. The more light, the more intense the red color of the leaf edges becomes!

2. Watering: Succulents store water in their leaves. Only water when the potting soil has completely dried out. In summer, once every two weeks is usually sufficient; in winter, it can even go a month without water. Remember: With this plant, less is always more.

3. Watering technique: Pour the water directly onto the soil and avoid letting water sit between the leaves, as this can cause rot.

4. Temperature: It likes room temperature but can also handle heat well. Ensure that it does not get colder than 10°C in winter.

5. Repotting: Because it is a slow grower, you do not need to repot it often. Once every 2 to 3 years is more than enough.

Did you know? The powdery, white haze on the leaves is a natural sunscreen. It protects the plant against dehydration and bright sunlight. Therefore, do not touch the leaves too much to maintain the beautiful matte look!
