Wife, who never gives up on any plant, has a Kalanchoe which

beautifully last year.
Despite my advice to throw it away and start anew, it has been
nurtured and is throwing new growth from the base of leaf stems.
She
is smirking.
Should these be potted up individually or left to develop where
they
are?

K. blossfeldiana especially, once it has flowered, isn't worth
keeping for
the following year as it rarely flowers indoors again. However, you
could
try a few, nothing ventured, nothing gained individual cuttings from
the new
growth in the spring. Use a half-and-half mix of peat moss and sharp
sand
in 3inch. pots and put the pots in a warm position. Keep checking
the
compost as a peat and sand mix soon dries out. Once new growth
starts,
re-pot using a standard compost taking care not to damage the young
roots.

Cheers m' dear.
We'll give it a go.
