Can anyone tell me how to stop my Kalanchoe Tubiflorum (mother of thousands...the tubular kind) from drooping. It starts at the bottom and works its way up. I try less water, more water. Can't seem to make it happy. Any suggestions?
thanx
they're drooping! Why?
I don't know. But I am experiencing the same thing. Does yours have spots on the leaves?
Cut off the top, and replant. It may be rotting, it should be in flower at this time with big red flowers. Norma
It's only about 7 inches tall. Here's a pic of it. Don't forget, I'm in Cleveland. So this is just a houseplant. Doesn't get much sun these days.
The poor thing, it just needs more sun. All it can get. Thanks for telling where you live. My are out in the garden making a pest of themselfs, but the flowers are worth waiting. This is a envasive plant, so watch for it to come up in carpeting and cracks in cement, or motar on the kitchen sink. ;o) Norma
More sun huh? Well, I better get the grow lights out, cuz it's like 10 deg. here and very little sun. Thanx so much for the info!
Celia if you mean only the leaves, they naturally grow down. If you give more light now it just may flower for you, and the spots will sharpen up. This plant thrives on negelect. Norma
Thanx Norma. I thought it was dying. Maybe this summer I'll get it to flower.
