Do you feel that there is a difference between this and the Kalanchoe in your own home? It doesn't matter! As long as you do the following points, I guarantee that your longevity will also be blooming.

Topping

Young seedlings: When the seedlings grow to about 10cm, they need to be topped and pinched! Pinching is also simple, just pinch off the top part or cut it off with scissors.

The top row in the picture below needs to be pinched, and the part circled in red should be removed, while the bottom row has already been pinched. Flower lovers should be able to clearly see that the top in the middle has been removed.

Mature plants: Mature plants need to be topped twice a year, and branches that grow too high should be cut off. The specific positions can be referred to the figure below. Once one of the branches grows much taller than the other branches, that branch can be appropriately shortened, and new buds will then grow from the side.

If you are not sure when to cut, you can measure the distance between the upper and lower leaves. If it exceeds 4cm, it means that the branch needs to be pruned.

Spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate

If you are in a hurry, you can spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves of the Kalanchoe, which can also promote its flowering. However, it is best to do it in the afternoon, otherwise the strong evaporation from the sun at noon will increase the concentration of foliar fertilizer and easily burn the leaves.

It is important to get more sun

Kalanchoe needs plenty of sunlight to bloom. If you want all the buds of Kalanchoe to bloom at the same time, let it bask in the sun to its heart’s content! The picture below shows a single-petal Kalanchoe grown on the terrace. It looks spectacular!

Fertilization

If you want more flowers, you must fertilize them. Change the pot of the Kalanchoe once a year. Remember to put some chicken manure fertilizer at the bottom of the pot as base fertilizer when changing the pot. This way, you can grow it even without topdressing.

If you feel it is not safe, you can also apply thin fertilizers frequently during the growth period of Kalanchoe, and apply thin compound fertilizer liquid once a month. Before flowering, you should apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, which can also promote the germination of flower buds!

Plant a few more

If you want the Kalanchoe to bloom and fill the pot as quickly as possible, you can plant a few more in one pot, or put a few more in one pot when doing cuttings. The spectacular picture of the Kalanchoe blooming and filling the pot at the beginning is actually the result of a flower lover planting 5 plants in one pot!
