Kalanchoe Orange Double (Calanchchu)

About Kalanchoe Orange Double

Kalanchoe is a popular flowering succulent, valued for its long-lasting clusters of bright blooms above fleshy, scalloped foliage. This Orange Double variety produces dense clusters of vivid orange flowers that can bloom for weeks.

Growing Conditions

• Light: Bright, sunny locations, especially in summer; a south-facing window works well in winter.
• Soil: Ordinary, well-draining potting soil mix.
• Humidity: Tolerates normal indoor humidity well - a typical succulent trait.

Placement

Best on a bright windowsill, balcony, or sunny desk where it gets good light for flowering.

Care

• Watering: Water moderately in summer; let the soil surface dry out between waterings, and reduce watering further in winter.
• Fertilizer: Liquid fertilizer bi-weekly in summer, or slow-release pellets.
• Repotting: Repot only when the plant outgrows its pot - Kalanchoe doesn't need frequent repotting.
• Pruning: Cut off the spent flower head after blooming; the plant will rest, then flower again naturally in spring.

Note: This listing ships a young potted plant. Growth rate, mature size, and reblooming vary by light, care, and environment. CRITICAL: Kalanchoe contains cardiac glycosides and is toxic to pets, especially cats and dogs, if ingested - can cause vomiting, diarrhoea, and in rare severe cases heart-rhythm problems. Keep well out of reach of pets and small children.
