Unfortunately, many plant lovers think that the succulent plant would only thrive for one year, and once it has withered, it is not worth cultivating anyway. That this is not the case, prove our tips with which not only the flowering time can be extended. Properly maintained, the Kalanchoe also blooms every year.
