Kalanchoe daigremontiana, commonly known as Mother of Thousands or Alligator Plant, is a succulent subshrub native to Madagascar. It is known for its unique ability to produce plantlets along the edges of its leaves, which can drop off and root to form new plants. This plant thrives in desert or dry shrubland climates and is well-suited to arid conditions.
Kalanchoe daigremontiana requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and low humidity. Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This succulent is relatively easy to care for and can adapt to indoor and outdoor environments.
تربة
This plant prefers well-draining sandy soil. A cactus or succulent mix is ideal. Ensure the soil dries out almost completely between waterings to prevent root rot. Good drainage is essential for the health of the plant.
سماد
Fertilize Kalanchoe daigremontiana with a balanced succulent fertilizer, such as a 2-4-4 N-P-K formula, during the growing season. Apply the fertilizer sparingly, as too much can harm the plant.
إعادة السمعة
Repot the plant when it outgrows its current container, typically every 1-2 years. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh succulent mix.
الانتشار
Kalanchoe daigremontiana is easily propagated from the plantlets that form along the edges of its leaves. Simply remove the plantlets and place them on the surface of a well-draining soil mix. They will root and grow into new plants.
تشذيب
Prune the plant to remove any dead or damaged leaves and to control its size. Pruning can be done at any time of the year. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to make clean cuts.
تسمم
Kalanchoe daigremontiana is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain compounds that can cause gastrointestinal distress and other symptoms. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.
