Kalanchoe Species, Cinnamon Bear, Copper Spoons, Shoe Leather Kalanchoe

I had to have this plant because that copper is one of my favorite colors and that is all the reason I needed. I have close to a hundred ...Read Moresucculents and this isn't even in my top 50. It's quite the disappointment. First of all, it grows so super slow. My other kalanchoe plants are pretty fast growers so I assumed this would grow pretty steadily too. It is easy to care for though and takes neglect pretty well too. I can go a few weeks in between waterings. It sits on my porch and gets full morning sun and tolerates fine. It hasnt lost any of it's color thankfully yet although everything I read says it will eventually. My plant is about a year old. I know it says leaf or stem propagation but I have had zero success with leaf method. Stem cutting is best way to go about it. I cut a piece off, root hormone it and let it dry for 3 days then stick it back in the Terra cotta planter and never give it another thought. I'm one hundred percent successful with this method. Although as slow as it grows I'm sure I won't live to see it to maturity lol. Idk if it will flower in a container, mine hasn't yet and don't particularly expect it to. This plant didn't live up to my expectations and there are so many other succulents that will be far more rewarding in my opinion than this plant.
