Question about Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana
Hi all -- I purchased a Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana last year and it's about to
come into its second bloom. Can anyone tell me if I should be pinching off the spent blooms on this plant? If so, will it continue to bloom year-round since I'm keeping inside? Any info is appreciated. Thanks! |

Question about Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana
Unlike Ceroid, I have had pretty good success getting commercially produced
Kalanchoe 'blossfeldiana type' hybrids to continue to bloom. However, mine only bloom in winter after a significant period of exposure to cool temperatures and short days. If yours is blooming again this year you are obviously treating it correctly, don't change anything. --beeky Natty_Dread wrote: Hi all -- I purchased a Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana last year and it's about to come into its second bloom.

Question about Kalanchoe Blossfeldiana
Didn't say didn't have sucess getting them to flower, Bucky. Said that it
usually isn't worth the trouble. As I said before, the commercial Kalanchoe hybrids are of complex parentage, bear very little if any resemblance to the original Kalanchoe blossfeldiana and they really should not be referred to that species. Also you should learn how to spell Cereoid properly, Buckwheat. wrote in message ...
