Kalanchoe Synsepala 13cm

🌿 Kalanchoe synsepala Care Guide

The Kalanchoe synsepala (sometimes called Walking Kalanchoe or Cup Kalanchoe) is a charming succulent with plump green leaves edged in red. As it grows, it sends out long stolons tipped with baby plants, giving it a quirky, “walking” look. Hardy and eye-catching, it’s perfect for sunny spots.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light

• Can handle some direct morning or late-afternoon sun

• Avoid harsh midday sun, which can scorch the leaves

💧 Water

• Follow the “soak and dry” method—water thoroughly, then let soil dry out completely

• Very drought-tolerant, so less is more with watering

• Make sure the pot has excellent drainage

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers low to average humidity

• No misting needed—excess moisture can cause rot

🍽️ Feeding

• Use a cactus or succulent fertilizer every 6–8 weeks in spring and summer

• Skip feeding during autumn and winter when growth slows

🌱 Quick Tips

• Perfect for bright windowsills, balconies, or succulent arrangements

• Those long stolons with babies can be rooted to make new plants

• Not pet-safe—keep away from cats and dogs
